About this episode
After starting out with humble beginnings singing in their father’s church in West Oakland, CA, The Pointer Sisters went on to achieve worldwide success and a place in pop music history. The eldest sister, and only remaining member of the original group, Ruth Pointer, continues to perform the music of The Pointer Sisters all over the globe with her daughter, Issa Pointer, and granddaughter, Sadako Pointer. What an absolute thrill it was to speak to this talented trailblazer. We laughed so much, especially when she caught me out on an on-air oopsie I made yeeeaaarrrs ago, and Ruth was listening! The Pointer Sisters will be joining The Commodores and The Spinners for a limited engagement tour this summer through the fall sharing an "unforgettable evening of classics hits." What an opportunity! ~ Delilah See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
