Review

One of the several Pointer Sisters compilations that focuses on the group's late-'70s and '80s run, this Greatest Hits misses the mark by failing to include "He's So Shy." Just about anyone looking to obtain the Pointers' best material from this, the most popular era of the group, would want to have that song provided. Apart from that miscue, it's not much different from the many other sets released in the States and abroad throughout the '90s and early 2000s. Notable highlights include "Automatic," "Neutron Dance," "Slow Hand," "I'm So Excited," "Fire," "Everybody Is a Star," "Dare Me," and "Jump (For My Love)." ~ Andy Kellman, All Music Guide
