This is Gladys in her 70s and she leaves the young people for dead. A truly extraordinary performer and just so much fund to watch. The kids don't even know there were still steam trains in the 1970s which actually did go "whoo whoo". Wish I could have heard her live in the 1970s.
people you are listening to one of the greatest female vocalist of all time my mum god rest her introduced me to Gladys knight and the pips in the 70s still brilliant today please introduce your kids to her soulful tones they will also love her for life
This rendition of this song is fabulous. It's detailed. It's about trains and personal relations and big cities. Remember passengers be careful around trains because they're big and heavy. I love that they mention Los Angeles prominently, it's a huge crappy town but here is where I've been hearing this song for a long time.
I listened to this when it first came out in the 70's;..MAJOR HIT!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE this arrangement on Skyville Live...great R&B sound. What a talented group, and of course Gladys is always amazing. So many good memories of college days when it came out.
Can you imagine how great the late Jim Weatherly felt sitting in the front row hearing 3 or more different generations singing and listening to his song that he wrote about Lee Majors and Farrah Faucet's love issues in 1970 under the original title, "Midnight Plane to Houston," and later renamed, Midnight Train to Georgia," per Glady's request? Absolutely AMAZING!!
Of course Gladys is going to run circles around any other singer. She has always been exceptional. From the time she was a teenager to now. She's one of those rare singers who couldn't hit a bad note if she tried Even at 71 she has no peer. I think she deserves more recognition honestly.
Inspires and connects me to one of my best memories, THE BEST memory actually. Skiing Sun Peaks/Tod Mountain, Kamloops B.C. No tourist accommodation - bunks for employees - leaving your skis ( with "maybe" 6 others pairs) propped in the snow for the next morning/day. I only regret not be able to go back and stay there. Gladys Knight made me think..................Thank you!
This is probably the best recording of all youtube versions and also originals from the seventhies. Fantastic to hear every single note from the base line, see and hear this real brass combo and the best: gladys with her amazing voice and vocalists.
GK is uncomparable! Powerful and yet soulful voice. She simply captivates the whole stage and all audiences with her voice. So brilliant and beautiful to see her perform.
The mark of an absolute pro- she’s sung this song probably thousands of times yet, she’s totally into the performance like it’s her new hit. And having to boot! Mad respect for her.
I adore you, Gladys! I was about 11 years old when I first heard this song and I immediately fell in love with your music while the older people dance to your music and I looked from a corner. I understood what "sexy love" was when I heard you. I forgot to mention that it during a beach summer vacation near to my hometown in Caracas, Venezuela. You still sound as wonderful and unique as then. Love and respect, Gladys!
Has and always will be my favourite female performer ever> She still holds the record for most goose-bumps running up and down my spine at a live concert and that was every single song that night (over 40 years ago) and her dig down to the toes way of doing soul is just plain there, still. Yah he's not bad either lol
Live love love this woman since i was 18years I'm 65 now and still in love seen her 3 times live wish it was more but i live in Australia. One day vegas
Gladys knows what she is singing about. Singing is one thing. She takes it to another level. Thank you, Gladys, for teaching this 74 year old white boy what “soul” really is.
Just amazing!! Music of Gladys' era & this tune, simply doesn't compare with the trash nowadays. This was a superb performance & a real joy to listen to once more.
Gladys makes it look SO easy, because she's a once in a lifetime talent. When you listen to the other two ladies here, it's a lot easier to realize just how incredible Gladys Knight is...and she makes it look absolutely effortless. That's talent, folks.
Gladys Knight possesses beauty that defies description. When she opens her mouth to sing, what comes forth is a mixture of soul, pathos and joy. There will never be another like her.
Gladys Knight has a monstrosity of voice, that despite the years still rumbles and extremese, the two girls who were accompanying her to even more young people not arrived even to half of the vocal level of Gladys, phenomena such as those are not seen today, great Gladys Knight
Nobody can sing it like Gladys!
There is only one Gladys Knight and she can surely sing!!!!!!
Oh Gladys, girl you are the very best👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Silvio Oliveira ! I love this lady
Silvio Oliveira sheer class
She sounds thesame. I was a little boy listening to this song with my parents. And her voice never changed. She was born to sing.
Gladys is pure class - and as the saying goes, age will not weary them.
God bless you, Gladys, and all those who accompany you. Nice one. Great one.
Miss Gladys, saw you at Noth Sea Jazz 2017! My god you are the greatest.
Nothing like Gladys Knight signing 'Midnight Train to Georgia'...simply AMAZING...
So powerful is Gladys's voice you have to feel for her co artists
Excited but not able, I love you Gladys, may God continue to bless you.
Thanks for your song, you can see that you enjoy it, as we see you singing
No one like Gladys, my fave

No comparison. Gladys is truly in a league of her own. Always a pleasure to watch and to listen to...each and every time. What a class act!

The back singers are killing it!!!! they're on point wow!! Gladys is still the Gladys from over 40 yrs ago

You better believe it.
So true
The mark of an absolute pro- she’s sung this song probably thousands of times yet, she’s totally into the performance like it’s her new hit. And having to boot! Mad respect for her.
This is “ music “!!! Pure gold, go on Gladys. These were the days wherein could relate to the words as well as the music!!! Could not be better!!!!
Ma Gladys...still crisp and clear...much love from Papua New Guinea...
A power voice... with such clarity.
Like all the other tracks of Gladys this is a quantum leap above all the others. Plus what a tight band and backup. Just great!!

Gladys Knight was my first concert in 1972. She was amazing then and every time since then. Long may you run, Gladys. You are still the bomb.
I adore you, Gladys! I was about 11 years old when I first heard this song and I immediately fell in love with your music while the older people dance to your music and I looked from a corner. I understood what "sexy love" was when I heard you. I forgot to mention that it during a beach summer vacation near to my hometown in Caracas, Venezuela. You still sound as wonderful and unique as then. Love and respect, Gladys!
She is so wonderful !!!

I never never get tired of Gladys Knight. Firtst time i heard her voice on the radio, when i was a young kid, i was sold! Serious!
Thanks for sharing! from Japan. ;)
Gladys Knight is Soo awesome!! For a big time singer like her to step back and let her back up singer take the spotlight, is just epic
Gladys Knight's voice never fades, never ages nor will her soul. Timeless.
I think Gladys has a hit on her hands :) She still sounds great!
her voice is timelesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!
Ms. Knight . . . YOU ROCK THE AGES. Nobody. Nobody. Simply Nobody does it like you.
The Empress Of Soul. Still the Same as 30 yrs ago.
Thank You Sister.

Music of Gladys' era & this tune, simply doesn't compare with the trash nowadays.

Glady Knight sounds just like when she was young. Big huge awesome vocals!
whitireia
Ray Muniz has
Age is just anumber!!
Better. More depth and fullness like a fine bottle of wine that has aged.
Gladys Knight possesses beauty that defies description. When she opens her mouth to sing, what comes forth is a mixture of soul, pathos and joy. There will never be another like her.
Not a competition but Gladys is one in a million. Probably the most underrated soul genius ever.
Gladys Knight has a monstrosity of voice, that despite the years still rumbles and extremese, the two girls who were accompanying her to even more young people not arrived even to half of the vocal level of Gladys, phenomena such as those are not seen today, great Gladys Knight
She'll always be the Empress of Soul. No one like her.
Literally sounds the same as 40 years ago! Legend!!
That's what I'm saying
Totalmente de acuerdo. Gladys canta como en sus mejores tiempos.
That was great, love you Gladys.
what a legend; a beautiful smile, a beautiful voice and a beautiful spirit!
Thank you Gladys,
Like fine wine!
There is nobody else like Gladys. This is my favorite song.
A excellent trio, also outstanding back-up musicians*********
THAT'S when you REALLY hear how great a vocalist Gladys is. You have to be brave to share a stage with this woman!
OR STUPID. I THINK THEIR MANAGERS DID THEM AN INJUSTICE --- LOL
hahabass no
@@JUNELUVPOOH
Her back up singers are better than those two.........
The other two were blown away by the Empress.
DIVINE GLADYS! WONDERFUL VOICE! GREAT TALENT!
One of my all time favourites, Love Gladys so much
