A very good compilation of Hits! March 6, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This CD is a good choice for those who love real good, nice and smooth 70s Soul music. "I've Got To Use My Imagination", "Try To Remember/The Way We Were", "Best Thing Ever Happened To Me", and other great songs are included.

Astonishingly Great March 8, 2006 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Why has't GK been canonized to the extent some of the other famous R&B divas have? Her amazing, warm & soulful vocal prowess takes a back seat to nobody. This collection, the first I believe, to span all of her career, features an incredible parade of genius, state of the art vocalizing. From indispensable, classic chestnuts like "Heard it throught the Grapevine" and "Friendship Train" to the megaclassic "Midnight Train to Georgia" (I know we've all heard that one to the point where it's almost impossible to appreciate it anew, but listen, really listen, sometime to the eloquent and moving vocal, the impeccably arranged background vox, and the impossibly sweet and touching lyrics. It's a stunning experience), the aural pleasure this record induces never flags. She even tackles a few sappy, maudlin, middle of the road-y ballads, like "Hero" and actually acquits herself admirably. If she can rise above dorky material of that ilk, then she must indeed be some kind of dang genius.
Give it up for Gladys!

I've been listening to Ms. Knight and the Pips for many years, since the early 70's and she and they continue to amaze me with their beautiful voices. This CD is no exception. They are truly wonderful people who have Blessed us with their music and lyrics that positively impact the lives of all who will give them an ear. Glad I bought this CD. I think you will be glad too.
All my favorites... January 16, 2006 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
As a younger person who did not really grow-up in The Gladys Knight and the Pips era, I am so very glad I found this cd. It has all the songs I know on it.
I have just become a Gladys fan and I am glad that I realized how great she is. Her performance on the '05 BET Awards was awesome, showing why she got the lifetime achievement award.
The songs on this cd are the ones I remeber listening to when I was riding in the car with my dad. I am loving it.
