Description:

This 2-CD compilation covers almost all of the material recorded by soul legend Gladys Knight & The Pips for Fury, Max, and other labels between 1961 and 1965, the period of their beginnings. A must-listen album for fans who can catch a glimpse of Gladys's prodigious talent as a singer, who was still in her teens at the time, and features songs from her two albums "Letter Full Of Tears" and "Gladys Knight" as well as remastered original analog recordings of single A and B sides and more. Here is the origin of their later spectacular career in Motown and Buddah.
