My girls, the Pointer Sisters, won two Grammy Awards at the annual ceremony held February 26, 1985. Their song Automatic won Best Vocal Arrangement for Two or More Voices, arrangements by Ruth, June, and Anita. Jump (For My Love) won Best Pop Performance for a Duo or Group with Vocal. Their album Breakout should have won more Grammys in my opinion.
This was a time when music was awesome!
