Grand Dame Gladys Night.Back in those days when events like this had class and style and nobody had to be half naked on stage,in order to get peoples attention.I would love to go back in that time.

My brother and I are 62 and 63 years old , and we both had a crush on Gladys as far back as the early 70's . The strange thing is we were white kids , and lived in Orange Co. Calif. . The other kids at school were into bands like the Jackson 5 , or the Partridge Family , the Osmonds , etc etc . I will always have that crush !

She ( Gladys ) was the smoothest.

this is 1972, not 1968..."I Don't Want To Do Wrong" was contained [in] the "If I Were Your Woman" lp (released at the END of 1970), and was GKTP's follow-up single from same -- released well into 1971...Also, during this appearance, the quartet performed "Make Me The Woman You Go Home To", which was their "Standing Ovation" single, released in '72...#factcheck

What a beautiful young lady she was. And what an intelligent and articulate introduction.

I went to see Gladys in Louisville Kentucky back in the 80s and my pregnant wife and I had seats center stage 2nd row and I was so excited to see her. Gladys sang 2 songs and my wife said to me we are going to have to leave because I am feeling really sick. That was 40 years ago and I still have the wife and I'm still listening to the "Empress of Soul."

Why did she ever leave the pips!?

[@lecuyerdooley1084]

I mean, they were together from kids. And these weren't just people she sang with; one was her brother and the other her cousins. At a certain point, a woman wants to be in control of her own destiny, not tied to men or being in the minority to men.

@@lecuyerdooley1084 no reason for me!

[@beautyRest1]

@@lecuyerdooley1084 she wasn’t ‚tied to men‘ they were a successful group, each member contributed, but her cousins are dead now anyway.

[@lecuyerdooley1084]

@@beautyRest1 Well, you're not Gladys Knight. You don't know what that experience was like being the youngest and the only girl with your older brother and cousins around you in your personal AND professional life daily.

[@lecuyerdooley1084]

@@beautyRest1 She was tied to them. It was "Gladys Knight AND the Pips." TF? Just like Diana Ross or Smokey Robinson ... she wanted to be just herself, not her AND other people. What's hard to understand about that?

[@carlettadavis7986]

I wonder was she pregnant here
