The early '80s music scene was shaped, in large part, by the Pointer Sisters. Who could keep their seats when songs such as "Jump (For My Love)," "Automatic," and "I'm So Excited" played? When you want people to get up on the dance floor, just play their music.

June and Anita are no longer with us, but their music has a power that will always live on. November 30 is June Pointer's birthday. You can celebrate by clicking the link below. You'll hear my favorite Pointer Sisters' recording.

Read more about the exciting music scene of the '70s and '80s in my award-winning book, "After Dark: Birth of the Disco Dance Party." It's available on Amazon and wherever books are sold.
