THE POINTER SISTERS were one of the most successful female groups the music industry has seen with 13 top 20 singles and 8 top 40 albums shared between the US and UK pop charts. The 1983 release of BREAK OUT saw the group reach the peak of their commercial success. BBR is very proud to present this 2CD deluxe edition, featuring the 1983 version of the album (massively successful on its release in the UK) for the first time on CD, plus the updated 1984 version and all of the 12” and 7” versions of each track from the album. Released in a deluxe digipak with 24-page booklet, the extensive liner notes feature interviews with ANITA POINTER, RUTH POINTER, RICHARD PERRY and several of the album’s associate producers.
