=== Continued European success === The album ''[[Bet Cha Say That to All the Girls]]'' was released in 1983, the lead single from which featured American Jazz singer [[Al Jarreau]]. The group experienced renewed success in 1984, when Atlantic Records belatedly released "[[Thinking of You (Sister Sledge song)|Thinking of You]]" followed by a Nile Rodgers remix of "[[Lost in Music]]" in the UK, the latter peaking at number four. The following year, they released their seventh studio album ''[[When the Boys Meet the Girls (album)|When the Boys Meet the Girls]]'' and continued success in the UK. Released by Atlantic Records, lead single "Frankie" hit the top spot on the UK Singles Chart, spending four weeks at number one.<ref name="Larkin"/> In 1989, Kathy began a solo career, while still active with Sister Sledge for certain shows. Debbie, Joni, and Kim continued to perform as Sister Sledge and in 1992 collaborated with Jean-Paul "Bluey" Maunick from UK acid jazz group [[Incognito (band)|Incognito]] on the single "World Rise and Shine". The song featured on their greatest-hits album ''And Now…Sledge…Again''. The single reached number one in Italy and resulted in the trio hosting their own TV show there. The group (including Kathy) experienced a resurgence of success in the UK the following year when the Sure as Pure remix of "We Are Family" was released and peaked at number five, followed by remixes of "[[Lost in Music]]" (number 14) and "Thinking of You" (number 17). A greatest-hits album, ''[[The Very Best of Sister Sledge 1973–93]]'', was also released. In 1996, after witnessing a shooting in LA, Joni Sledge wrote the protest song "Brother, Brother Stop" that was recorded by the trio and featured on a new greatest-hits CD. In 1997, Joni produced the group's eighth studio album, ''African Eyes'', that garnered critical acclaim and was nominated for a Grammy as best-produced CD.
