Gladys Knight - The Solo Collection [CD]

Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.All items shipped within 3 working days of payment.Aside from two obscure '60's singles, Gladys' name had never appeared as a solo performer until 1978: from the early '60s, with family group Gladys Knight & The Pips, she attained international recognition over a period of seventeen years. In 1973, after racking up a third No. 1 US hit with 'Neither One Of Us (Wants To Be The First To Say Goodbye)' for Motown, Gladys & The Pips joined the roster of Buddah Records scoring several hits in a row (including Midnight Train To Georgia').rrIn the midst of legal wrangling with the label in 1976 and 1977, Gladys recorded MIss Gladys Knight for Buddah with producers Gary Klein and the UK's Tony Macaulay. While the now-rare 1978 LP didn't yield any hit singles, it did contain standouts such as the dancefloor club play highlight 'It's Better Than Good Time' and a potent medley of Randy Newman's 'Sail Away' and Allen Toussaint's 'Freedom For The Stallions.'rrSigned as a solo artist to Columbia Records in August 1978, Gladys recorded and co-produced (with veteran producer Jack Gold) a one-off, self-titled set for the label, released in 1979. 'Gladys Knight' contains a diverse range of material including the single 'Am I Too Late?' (a Top 50 US R&B hit), the Sam Dees-penned 'My World' and a standout performance of the classic 'I (Who Have Nothing),' along with the dance-oriented 'You Bring Out The Best In Me.'
