Gladys Knight is a beautiful, classy, uber-talented LADY who sang with subtle power and an *authenticity of expression* that is so sorely missing in the majority of today’s artists. And The Pips, comprised of male relatives of hers, provided perfect backing vocals (and smooth moves) that were enjoyable to our ears and eyes without ever stealing the focus of the whole - ALL done with elegance and impeccable taste.

My first great love was an American GI and we dated until he went back to the States. He gave me the Gladys Knight and the Pips album as a birthday present and always signed the back of each record with his wonderful writing. That was in the 70s! And guess what? We are still in contact with each other after 50 years. And the closeness never left ❣

She'd play this Song and "Midnight train to Georgia" She loved Dionne Warwick: Anita Baker, Sara Vaughn, Etta James, Whitney Houston, Sade, Aretha, Roberta Flack, Patti Labelle, Diana Ross & Patti Austin. Dad was a Jazz Musician but he'd play alot of Lionel Ritchie tunes for Mom. I think of them when I hear Gladys, Especially "You're The best thing." Thank You.
