Gladys Knight – wow – how big was she in the early to mid-70′s.

“Neither one of us wants to be the first to say goodbye” – I seem to recall was their biggest Motown hit – so you’re in good company with your choice.

Of course quite a few of Gladys’ hits were written by country songwriter Jim Weatherly who also did work for artists such as Glen Campbell – who I happened to meet just last year at the Sydney Opera House as part of his Australian tour – and despite his less than pristine behaviour a few years back – still holds up well in the vocal stakes.

Mind you – my favourte Gladys Knight hit is still “Midnight Train to Georgia,” – sure it’s not a break-up song – but a classic none-the-less.

Stay well
