Gladys Knight & The Pips: New Victoria, London
Cliff White, NME, 15 January 1977
THERE IS AN unwritten guarantee with every ticket for a Gladys Knight & The Pips concert. A guarantee of aural, visual and emotional satisfaction. I've never yet seen them give a bad performance, nor have I ever met anyone who's had the remotest cause for complaint about the group, either as entertainers or as people.
