- Gladys Knight
- Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts – Kansas City, Missouri
- November 19, 2023
Multi-Grammy Award winning Gladys Knight’s performance in front of a sold-out audience at the Kauffman Performing Arts Center was an entertaining 90 minutes of original hits as well as crowd pleasing covers including a raucous version of the Jackson 5’s “Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)” or the poignant “The Way We Were,” a hit for both Barbra Streisand and Ms. Knight. Backed by a trio of ladies (but no PIPS 
) and an impressive band, the Empress of Soul proved she still has what it takes to deliver her style of music.
While I wasn’t familiar with every song, the hits were certainly a treat to behold. “Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me”,” Love Overboard”, “I Heard it Through the Grapevine” (recorded after Marvin Gaye but released first) Grammy winners “Neither One of Us *Wants to be the First”) and my all-time favorite “Midnight Train to Geogia”. I really missed the classic choreography of the Pips for that one……
It is always nostalgic and does my heart good to see the musical stars from my childhood, even in their waning years. The style and talent such as Gladys Knights is no longer a part of the music industry of today…IMHO.
Ms. Knight’s tour continues both in the sates and in Europe through July 2024. For tickets and more information, please click HERE.
