The Pointer SistersCNN reports that June Pointer, the youngest of the 80s music group The Pointer Sisters, died from cancer at the age of 52 last week. The Pointer Sisters had many hits in the '70s and '80s, including I'm So Excited, Jump (For My Love), Slow Hand, and many more.

I didn't know until recently that The Pointer Sisters were the vocalists for the Sesame Street Pinball Song, so in tribute to June Pointer, I just had to post a link to the YouTube video.

Note: I've removed the embedded player, as it takes too long to load and the static image is kind of ugly...
