That's a Plenty is the second studio album by the American female vocal group The Pointer Sisters. It was released in 1974 on Blue Thumb Records.
Mixing the Pointers' brand of soul with rollicking blues numbers and jazz covers, the album also included the country-flavored "Fairytale", their second Top 40 hit. The song crossed over to the country charts, enabling the group to become the first African-American vocal group to perform at the Grand Ole Opry.[7] The group won the Grammy Award for "Best Country Vocal Performance By A Duo Or Group".[8]
It wouldn't be until Beyonce, 50 years later, in 2025 that another black woman would win in The Country Category.
The album was the second by the group to be certified gold. The album was remastered and issued on CD in 2006 by Hip-O Select.
