"Slow Hand" by The Pointer Sisters

This was one of my mama's alltime favorite songs. I remember when I went to the record store to buy some 45s for myself, she gave me some money and told me to pick this one up. I had not heard it yet at the time. I got it home, recorded it on an 8 Track tape for her, and liked it myself also.

Anybody into this one?
Andy is a four letter word.

I liked their version of "Fire" better.

My mom used to love the Pointer Sisters, I might see if I can dig some up for her, her birthday is on Wednesday. Thanx for the idea Andy.
Lady Cab Driver is one of the greatest songs ever!

Slow Hand is a country song. The original is by Conway Twittey.

I agree with Timmy, The Pointers' version of Bruce's Fire is way better. More funk & soul fans name check this song more.
