Top 20 hits like “Every Beat of My Heart,” “Letter Full of Tears,” “I Heard It Through The Grapevine,” and “If I Were Your Woman,” set the stage for an amazing run in the mid- 70’s, when Top 10 gold-certified singles like “Neither One of Us (Wants To Be The First To Say Goodbye),” “I’ve Got To Use My Imagination,” “Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me,” and the #1 smash “ Midnight Train to Georgia” established Gladys Knight & The Pips as the premier pop/R&B vocal ensemble in the world. With Gladys singing lead and the Pips providing lush harmonies and graceful choreography, the group went on to achieve icon status, having recorded some of the most memorable songs of the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s. The group was renamed Gladys Knight and the Pips, and following Langston‘s departure in 1962, the classic l ine-up was in place. In 1959, Brenda and Elinor left the group, replaced by cousin Edward Patten and friend Langston George. At age seven she won the Grand Prize on Ted Mack’s Amateur Hour, and the following year, she, along with her brother Bubba, her sister Brenda, and her cousins William and Elinor Guest, formed The Pips. She has traveled many different roads, but for Gladys Knight, all have led to enduring success.Īt the age of four, she began singing as a guest soloist in church. She has enjoyed many #1 hits in the Pop, R&B, and Adult Contemporary, as well as triumphs in film, TV, live performing, and even in the restaurant industry. Very few singers over the lastt sixty years have matched her unassailable artistry. Today we celebrate her on her birthday, May 28th. The great ones endure, and Gladys Knight has long been one of the greatest.
