I don't understand why kathy performes we are family alone. then two of the other sisters perform the same song alone as well. meaning, they won't perform the song together. I will say that I had the pleasure of seeing kathy perform we are family without her sisters except one who I think wasn't one of the popular ones. but she did the song exactly how she performed it on midnight special in the seventies the whole song--all 12 or so minutes and had the audience on their feet the whole time! it was great. we were all shocked while glad to see her perform the song. she was in excellent shape too. wink

I would have loved to see that nod She did have the best voice, but i don`t think it`s the same without the sisters...
It`s kinda like Gladys Knight without the Pips, she`s still great too, but it`s missing something... THE PIPS!!

that is true, in this case she did so well no one noticed. I have never seen a whole arena of all (and no I am not racist) but the audience was white. the whole concert on feet rocking to that jam. It would have had more of a visual effect to see the song re inacted with the sisters though. you know for a retro remenisc.

I have to listen more to the other sisters, i forgot who sang the lead on "Let`s go on vacation", but she had a decent voice too nod
