    They don’t sing like this today. She just SANG. It’s not overproduced. Just gorgeous.

    They just don't make em like this anymore, not even close. Elegant. Soulful. Beautiful. Storytelling. What a class talent, to me one of the absolute finest singers of the 70s or any decade. Sheer brilliance.

      @@tomschmitz261 Say Whaaaaat??? With all due respect, I disagree. Gladys and Aretha are def top 2. The heart wrenching emotion that comes through their voices, and their effortless vocal skill -- they just do it for me. Check out "Angel" by Aretha -- one of my favs.

    Hi Shawn and Mel, wasn't that so beautiful? Gladys Knight sang like an angel. She and the Pip's are one of my top ten favorite Motown artists of all time. Have you heard Midnight Train to Georgia? I love that one too. Did you notice all the couples slow dancing around the stage? I got tears in my eyes watching that. You never see couples slow dancing like that anymore, with the man holding the woman so tenderly and with respect. It breaks my heart when I see the way performers are dancing today on videos and television. I have been to wedding receptions where young girls are out there copying moves and they do not have a clue what those moves represent. I wish people would dance with respect and caring again. I love dancing and Soul Train had the best dancers on tv.

Soul Train was originally on an all Chicago network, but after it gained in popularity, it became an affiliate of CBS,I believe.

    Gladys Knight and Pips didn't get the attention they needed from Motown Records. They do (another) great version of " I Heard It Through Grapevine". They signed with Buddah Records, and things changed. Starting with this song, which was recorded on the Motown Label, they had 5 top 5 hits on the Pop charts in 73/74. 4 with Buddah, which was the same amount of top 10s they have with Motown form 61-72. Midnight Train to Georgia, On and On, Your the Best Thing that Ever Happened to Me, I've Got to Use My Imagination. Along with If I Were You're Woman and I Feel A Song In My Heart Again which are gems in their catalog.
