Gladys Knight: Soul Perfection In Person
David Nathan, Blues & Soul, 17 November 1972
IT'S A VERY rare treat to meet an artist whose work you admire and whose in-person appearances you find exciting and who on top of all this is just as wonderful as you hope they'll be. But that is the good fortune in store for anyone who has the pleasure to meet the very soulful Miss Gladys Knight.
