An All-Star Tribute To Cher
by Various Artists

The appeal of this various artists collection is not limited to Cher fans. "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)," for instance, is a great rock 'n' roll oldie covered by Cher. It is ably covered here, in turn, by Sheila E. I listened to Cher's recording of "Take Me Home" and pretty much decided against this song. Then I listened to the Anita Pointer performance anyway, on this tribute album, and bought it. My suggestion is to give this collection a listen and decide for yourself.

I had no idea until today that the "Pinball Number Count" segment intro on Sesame Street was sung by the Pointer Sisters!
