Energy is a 1978 album released by the Pointer Sisters in 1978 on Planet Records. After a brief split following sister Bonnie's departure from the group, a musically reinvented and recharged Pointer Sisters returned comprised of Ruth, Anita and June. Their first album for Planet, this was also the first album produced by Richard Perry. The record spawned a number two pop smash (and gold-certified single) with a cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Fire". "Happiness" was also scored on the pop Top 40. "Energy" became the group's first gold-certified release since 1974's That's a Plenty.
