RIP #AnitaPointer of the #PointerSisters, one of the most versatile and underrated #RnB pop groups of our time. #RuthPointer is the last original Pointer Sister.
Anita sang lead on many fan favorites such as 1975’s “How Long (Betcha Gotta Chick on the Side” and a #RichardThompson cover “Don’t Let a Thief Steal Into Your Heart”. Here’s a #SoulTrain clip interviewing the Sisters followed by “How Long” performed. https://youtu.be/lJtkuDpcZqU
