DISCO CLASSIC ALERT!!! When Bonnie Pointer left her sisters, few expected her to have such a HUGE record. This album, is all about old Motown hits. BONNIE scored big with I CAN'T HELP MYSELF (Sugar Pie Honey Bun).
The BELLS!! THE BELLS on this DISCO CLASSIC were heaven sent, as deejays remixed it to death, at least I did!! Extend the intro, send the chimes throughout the song, remix the bells. You could do it all.
The rest of the album is good as well, though only NOWHERE TO RUN got air-play. I liked COME SEE ABOUT ME, as BONNIE'S voice gave it a special sound, different then the SUPREMES original version. On my scale from 1-10, it gets a 10.
