Having a Party is the fourth studio album by American family vocal group the Pointer Sisters, released in 1977 on the ABC/Blue Thumb label.
It was a series of lasts for the group in many ways. With youngest member June out for a brief time, the remaining trio of Ruth, Anita and Bonnie recorded the set with June also appearing on the title track (a cover of Sam Cooke's hit). As it turned out, it would be the last album to feature Bonnie, the last album to feature David Rubinson as their producer and the last album the group recorded for Blue Thumb. Their next album would be on Planet Records, a year later, and would include the return of June Pointer, for a new chapter in the group's career.
Having a Party was remastered and issued on CD in 2006 by Hip-O Select.
