I have a couple of his songs on various play list, I think he has a lot of talent, but to be honest, I have no interest in knowing who or what he sleeps with! It ain’t even that deep!!!

Love ❤️ Ruth Pointer, she is so amazing and very funny. I love ❤️ her deep voice, and her songs 🎶 she sang, Automatic and Neutron Dance and also she is a fantastic and beautiful gospel singer. I am so happy 😊she is continuing the Pointer Sisters legacy with her daughter and grand daughter, thank you for all the beautiful music, videos and interviews, The Pointer Sisters legacy will live on forever. You all were my favourite female group growing up. So sad 😢that June, Bonnie and Anita had passed on, but, I am sure they are singing 🎵 with the angels 😇 in heaven. R.I.P.

Kathy looks so much like Debbie here. Great interview.... Her speaking voice really hints at what's to come when she fires up those pipes.

Think Carol introduced me to The Pointers, @ a time when having black guest stars was kinda radical, as was a woman hosting variety show.

Be true to yourself, always......everybody needs to remember what their address is and take care of business at their own address. Until I saw this video I never knew and now that I know, it doesn't change my respect for him and his music.

It's definitely not my Rufus & Chaka Khan favorite song but I know it was a staple for many fans back in the day. One of those fans was miss Natalie Cole that said on several interviews that the song was 1 of her favorites. Incredible how Brenda Russell's talent is around for so many decades now. She truly deserves her flowers too.

It's crazy that this and Torture came out the same year, and they performed it live on the victory tour which was amazing. 84 was a Jacksons packed year cuz MJ was still riding high off thriller and Jermaines album Dynamite, which this song came off of, was doing extremely well too on top of the Victory album. The 40th anniversary is in a couple months so i hope they finally release the tour on Blu Ray or something with all that footage they have😮‍💨.

Valerie Simpson recorded some demos of the sons she wrote for Diana Ross. With all due respect for Diana Ross, I think Valerie sang those songs better. I love Valerie’s voice no matter what she is singing. She is such a humble class act with so much talent. I play her interviews over a lot.

They are so many people from an era that fell by the wayside who had so much. The "business" has screwed us out quality music. Him, Tonya Blount, Taral Hicks, Jimmy Cozier, Derrick Dimitry, Dionne Faris, etc. were talents that we needed more of. I remember him with Fergie on Kid Incorporated "K-I-D-S". 😆 I feel old....

'The Other Woman' is the greatest song that Lenny Kravitz never recorded. The way it sounds could've been something Kravitz had written and recorded in a past life.

High praise indeed from Lisa - I expect Tina (RIP), Sting, Luther(RIP), Chaka, Mick Jagger would be as glowing about the best backing singer in the world. What a humble person Lisa is!!!!!!

I know someone that worked in the studio on two diana ross albums in the 1980's and he said she knew what she wanted and wasted no nd had no time for anyone wasting her time. He said more than any other artist she worked fast and smart and was totally comfortable and would flat tell you to our face it was unhappy but then let it go and get on with it. She would arrive every day in the studio as DIANA ROSS - glamour and it all. it was all a part of her getting into it. She said she was was a DIVA-no doubt but by this point she'd been putiting out hits for 25 years.

What a beautiful creature Cory Daye is and how modest she talks about her contribution to this truly iconic arrangement, which was unpreceded and never had a successor of it's likes again. Like herself, we did not have money at the time the album was released, so we did not smoke and drink for weeks until we got enough money to buy the record and played it over and over and over .... Finally found you, Cory.
