Description

1. JUMP (FOR MY LOVE) (single version) This is the first time the 7" mix of Jump has been available on a US Pointer Sisters CD 2. HE'S SO SHY The classic #3 pop hit that set the direction for the sisters in the eighties 3. FIRE The sisters' definitive version of the Bruce Springsteen song that became their first top ten pop hit. 4. AUTOMATIC (single version) The song that solidified the sisters' reputation as dancefloor divas. Again, the single version is here for the first time on an American Pointers album. 5. GOLDMINE (extended remix) The fabulous original shep pettibone 12" mix of Goldminemore… with wonderful spoken sections from June is now on CD for the first time anywhere. 6. I NEED YOU (UK special remix) I Need You was the first single from the classic Break out album. On it's original issue, it did not chart in the UK. After the huge success of Automatic and Jump (for my love), it was reissued in the UK with brand new 7" and 12" remixes. This UK only 12" remix of I Need You was far superior to the original extended version. This CD not only marks it's release on CD for the first time, but also it's first release outside of the UK. 7. WE'VE GOT THE POWER This beautifully exuberant 1980 track led by June received a lot of play on R&B radio and became a Dance hit in the US. Despite being reminiscent of the works of Mtume and Lucas as well as Earth, Wind & Fire, it was not released as a single. Happily, it makes it's international CD debut here. 8. NEUTRON DANCE The classic top ten hit from 1985 featured in Beverly Hills Cop 9. I'M SO EXCITED (Break Out album remix) One of the sisters' signature numbers, this song was originally a top 30 hit in 1982. When this remix was issued in 1984, it made the top ten. 10. HERE IS WHERE YOUR LOVE BELONGS Ruth Pointer gives a heart breaking performance on this beautiful quiet storm ballad from the wonderful Special Things album. It finally receives a long overdue CD release here. 11. SLOW HAND The Sisters' biggest pop hit ever in the States. 12. BLIND FAITH This cover of the classic Stealers Wheel track led by Ruth was the first single from the Priority album. Another track seeing it's first release on CD, anywhere in the world.
