[@Visiblediety]

All three of the ladies are alive in 2024 still performing !!! god bless us everyone !

[@simpfelicity2024]

gladys - most soul and power patti - most high belts and energy dionne - most natural and soothing

[@vaginiagadis5062]

Wonderful

[@oldsoul_anth243]

Yes! And in Dionne's prime. She was a power belter.

[@sandrawest9836]

I love this l looking in because love is a spirit and it my type of music and Toni braxon is my girl thank you I watch this once a day.happ new year I am in a Senior home I don't belong here. 😘🙂😏😪💞🙋

[@oldsoul_anth243]

@Ann Clarke I clearly know Ms. Dionne. You better check her catalog more. I suggest you watch her Park West concert, I didn't mean to love you (Live in Spain), All in love is fair, Make it Easy yourself in her pink dress performances.

[@oldsoul_anth243]

@Ann Clarke Even her duet with Luther Vandross of their song "How many times can we say goodbye." She was hitting F5 like nothing.

[@neskebeks]

Gladys singing I will survive... OMG... What a performance. It’s midday but she got me crying like a pig 😭😭😭

[@Nanbebe7]

I did the same thing when she sang The Way we were....Memories at her concert in 1982.

[@JP-oj9tz]

WOW! I had never seen the video of these 3 SuperStars until today! We've seen Patti LaBelle in Concert more than once at the Westbury music fair in New York, and we flew on an Airplane from Florida to Montgomery Alabama to see Gladys Knight in Concert. I've always enjoyed the songs and voice of Dionne Warwick, but never got a chance to see her perform in person, until this coming November 16, 2024 in Westbury New York.

[@edwarddawson8604]

I’ll tell y’all and I am not ashamed to say,I could not dry my eyes,they sang with such passion and emotion.Thank you Lord for these beautiful Ladies.🙏🏾

[@liz8crtravis670]

This is dynamic. These three sisters can "SANG", and that's more than singing!😊

[@its_fitz]

My parents had this on VHS! I would watch it all the time. Whew the memories 💙

[@amaroarnold]

Dionne.. Dionne.. My Dionne..

[@geraldtimberlake6709]

This is EPIC..I remember watching it back in the day, but watching it now...OMG?

[@maurierichie6571]

Dionne Warwick and I'll Never Love This Way Again - Wow !!!!!

[@McWhCl]

Patti's voice is super powerful

[@isaacortiz4617]

All 3 ladies are legendary but Patti is the best to me,and my favorite of all time.We just don't have singers like this anymore.❤❤❤

[@Yemanya22]

Dionne totally knocked me out from 28:30 on.....Wow, never knew she can hit those notes!

[@singingmanmd]

Yemanya22 Dionne can almost hit any note. Dont be fooled, lol

[@donovanrobinson1843]

She was a excellent soprano in her youth

[@margh737]

This was such a treat. Each lady's star power and talent shun through individually. None outdid the other. Collectively they were beyond outstanding.

Over from Verzuz 2020. Long live Gladys, Patti, and Dionne

[@jadoncarter3949]

Out of all the divas, these three were and still are real homies. Real Friends. As much as we wanted them to be, Aretha, Diana nor Tina was ever apart of the crew. These 3 are actually the down to earth relatable Divas.

[@seven979]

well i wouldn’t say that about Tina she’s very down to earth but i see where you’re coming from with Aretha and Diana

[@brettmcadams2686]

[@sherrygrant317]

Diana and and Gladly's had words Diana always put herself above everyone else .

[@happydeedee2441]

OMG this concert is EVERYTHING!!! Miss Warwick brought it tonight...classic. But I LOVE THEM ALL! I need them to do a reunion of this show. PLEASE 🦋

[@allymayful]

3 totally authentic, beautiful, amazingly talented, Christian entertainers. One of the best concerts l have ever experienced . Feeling totally up lifted.

[@nicholassmith490]

Hi there

[@inesdeike4396]

these ladies are still true masters, pure music, without a computer and headphones and half-naked gigs i love it

[@andienicci]

My grandma had this show on VHS. I'll never forget watching it.

[@simonsteam]

This is what you call entertainment!

[@carolearcher-shim215]

My mother loved Dionne Warwick and made sure any and every concert she had on the island of Jamaica, she attended with me in tow. I've loved Ms. Warwick since I was a small child. ❤️❤️❤️

[@MrChoirDirector87]

Wow! Memories! Back when singers had to actually SING! No auto tune, lip singing but stand flat footed with a mic and wreck the house! God how I miss these times! Gladys , Patti and Dionne slayed this entire special!

[@Digrient]

In this stellar company, you better bring your “A” game, and so the ladies did.

[@tamlynn786]

This was special and I’m so glad I found it on the tube. It’s funny how Patti sometimes deviates from the harmonies and it throws the other two off and you can see Dionne gets annoyed. LOL But I also see a sisterly bond. They act like sisters lol. All 3 of these beautiful divas are special and bring something unique to the table ...but Gladys! There is something so special and warm about her voice! It feels like home , like warm blanket. I could listen to her sing all day long! I hope these ladies live forever and continue to grace the world with their singing 💗

[@menaj2954]

The scary thing is we don't have artist that can sing like this live. I mean the control and stage presence. Amazing.

[@onseanzion4363]

Actually we do. Believe you me we do. But the way in which the industry is set up, you will almost never see it happen. But trust me we slay like this all the time

[@richardtabor2180]

Mena J ....mariah.whitney..real talent...enough said

[@ShyeNYC]

I'm sorry, Mariah does not command a stage and captivate like these 3 legends. You were right to include Whitney though...she could and did 😉

[@liveyourlife1777]

MJB is the last breed of Soul Singer's to date. She's the only one still performing live while sticking to her R&B roots. That's the reason why Essence have her headline their massive festival 15 times! Now that's Grand!

[@deronreed2945]

exactly

[@Blakmajik78]

I always get chills on Dionne's part at the beginning.....I love all 3 of these legends though

[@shiptingaroundbatonrougean6164]

Gladys is gorgeous they are all gorgeous

[@myrawashington2158]

Loved them all.

[@djeanthequeen8247]

Pray that the Lord allows these Ladies, and they are that in every sense of the word, live forever. We have nothing like this now...nothing that can even approach their talent, poise, glamour, and dignity. When they leave a huge aching hole will be left in the entertainment world.

[@singingmanmd]

DIONNE hair is liiiiiitttt!!! Beat!!!!!

[@jackieb6017]

This is my go to video when I am down. Love each of their voices. It's just their voices, background singers and musicians, no wind machines, etc. GREAT VOICES. LOVE THEM.

[@Hi.Shadow]

Auntie Patti wasn’t playing with that solo performance! Iconic. Her energy was like no other.

[@zawineferreira9137]

Back when music was music❤️and talent was real💯...music will never get better.. Old school forever💯❤️...

[@wildbloomsings456]

I ALWAYS LOVED and appreciated their "girL taLk" sessions at the kitchen tabLe! Whenit aired back in the day, I feLt Like I was Listening to my aunties speak about Life and Love, sharing their wisdom from their experiences. This entire production is a gem and a treasure. TimeLess!

Dionne Warwick is so humble! She doesn't try to compete with her two bestfriends. Btw, her performance of I'll never love this way again is incredible and warms my heart!

[@LisaPowell-so4mw]

Three very distinct voices of our era, but dang that Patti. Its like a match gets lit and she is off!

[@charlesjeffery3998]

Boy Patti got everybody in that theater standing up on their feet, she got the biggest standing ovation out of all of them, even though they all did good on there's solo songs, but I thought Gladys murdered I will survive, and Patti absolutely murdered new attitude, and Dionn chilled I'll Never Love This Way again, they all dead fantastic.

[@dabeage]

Also Josephine Baker

[@mariahwhitneycelinejanetmadona]

what year did dionne start her pop career vs diana

[@lekijolo5584]

Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey, Ethal Waters, and Josephine Barker are the blueprints. The music industry has been around since the late 1800's. They were first black divas of the industry. Time doesn't erase that fact.

I think Dionne might be older than the other two. I remember her having big hits back in the 1960s. I remember Patti in the 60s and 70s, and Gladys in the 60s and 70s, too. I would love to know how old they are. And HOW they keep it all together!

[@prof32]

@@gingerfishable It's very easy to find. Both Gladys and Patti were born in 1944, along with Diana Ross (Patti and Gladys birthdays are just days apart from each other). I believe that Dionne was born in 1939, so she is a bit older than them.
