bb king & Gladys night, please send me someone to love

[Menexpert]

You know something. I saw Gladys Knight last year in concert and she still sounds like this now!

I've seen a lot of performers over the last 20 years or so and I can tell you without doubt that she's up there with the very best.

[mimaka92]

Damn!! Sweet!

[wolfeny1946]

Gladys is absolutely gorgeous and that is one hell of a voice...

[railcar123]

The ending, Paul Butterfield, and BB's solo is awesome!

[nachodaddy]

There are people who know & appreciate great singers, ie, Gladys Knight, and then there are people who gush over lame screamers.

@nachodaddy „The good man out of his good treasure sends out good things, whereas the wicked man out of his wicked treasure sends out wicked things. (Mt 12:35, similar to Lk 6:45)

[bemaniac2]

@nachodaddy TRUE DAT. Gladys has been singing, no SAAAngin' for a long time. Not screaming lol

[burdy1967]

How Damn Gorgeous does Gladys Look Here!!!!! Saw this concert when it was first aired and it's just the most amazing thing I have ever seen!!!

[MIKEMELLO47]

Amazing....2 fantastic artists!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[osbornd89]

Gladys is so into this!!!!! It's like she's always been a blues singer... this woman is so under rated. I would have loved to see that live. King is still the King as always!!!

[guitarandharp]

This is fantastic! Gladys Knight is underrated, I feel.

I saw her with The Pips in Birmingham, U.K. in 1972. It was fantastic. I went backstage and told her so...

Many thanks for posting this.

[pijirama]

@guitarandharp What is incredible is that she still seems to be the kindest and humblest person on earth! True empress of soul if not queen!...

[BluesGee]

they have the official ringtone of this at shut the fuck up noones dumb enough to go to that stupid website anyway.

[dustydino8]

MONEY.

[muddbone1978]

I loved her more than she could ever love me. I know that now since another man stepped in my house. Her love belonged to him. This burden will always be carried on my heart.

[mjnmjd]

Behold!!!!!!!!!! A real singer!! Where have they all gone?

[TennisGuyFL]

GK....you just killed it, baby girl! Like BB said...."Nobody does it better."

[timjmoran]

[FishAlaska69]

Oh yes... oh yes! Doesn't get better than this!

[bainbridge80]

I love it, I love it. touched me thru and thru and BB can make that guitar talk.

[nakid4life]

she skilled it she killed it she killed it

[StephanAOTTO1]

"Please Send Me Someone to Love" is a blues ballad, written and recorded by Percy Mayfield in 1950, on Art Rupe's Specialty Records label. It was on the R&B chart for 27 weeks and reached the number one position.

[Tony7840]

I would like to add that Harvey Fuqua and the Moonglows were the ones that crossed to the "Pop" charts with this song, in the late 50's on the Chess label. By the way, Fats Domino, Little Richard, Ricky Nelson, et al, had their recordings distributed by Specialty. Fats/Little Richard/Frankie Ford/Lee Dorsey and so many others recorded at the Cosimo Mattasa recording studio, in New Orleans.

[solaidback21]

She Killed it... I can't hear anyone else sing this song after I heard this version.

[jrthomas2]

beautiful ....simply wonderful!

[106harlem232]

O how I luv this song. I just heard it on the radio, for the first time today.

[railcar123]

Great ending!

[3muimui]

B B King + Gladys! * * * * *

[KOKINNOS]

Gladys Knight and BB KIng Kokinnos is flying high

[katiechristophe]

Pure soul. Sumptuous!

[nickai22]

This was Paul Butterfield's last public appearance, he passed shortly after the taping :(

[nakid4life]

I have never loved Ms. Knight more than I do at this very moment...

[DREWBABY1818]

Oh, this song is truly one of the BEST version of this BLUES song EVER - what a duet. WOW BB KING and Gladys together, LEGENDS will never be another recording like this. LUV IT - Thanks for the post.

[TMUSICIAN]

yes it's a very nice version, but the BEST for me is still the Eric Burdon's one.

[novafan]

I agree 100%!!!

[steven21042]

I think B's got the hotz for Miss Gladys. Think he's Inspired??? GREAT vid..nice job!

[Karcsubey]

Fantasztikus blues, Gladys Knight és B.B. King is a topok topja...... (HU)

[skydog46]

This is one of the best rendintions of this song ever. Gladys really vibes and responds to BB's playing with a spine chilling vocal!!!

[steven21042]

heck this one out Dan and maybe steal a lick or two..:)

B.B. KING LIVING LEGEND - Darling, You Know I Love You

[SarasotaSlim]

This is BB holding court with all kinds of blues dignitaries. I think that's Paul Buterfield on the harp. Gladys Knight is certainly a welcome addition to anyone's stage and she's in perfect voice as usual.
