EMPRESS OF SOUL GLADYS KNIGHT ETTA JAMES CHAKA KHAN BB KING

[Propaganja800]

such talent all together on one stage must've been an incredible show!!!! each artist brought a different element of soul

[NEDELSKIY1957]

Chaka Khan-super star !

[MegaSkoalBandit7195]

Chaka Kahn sucks. Etta James is the best singer of this song in this trio.

[Ms1930s]

Chaka Did That!

[Ms1930s]

Too Bad! Awesome!

[ChristianGranny1]

When my kids were little they thought Gladys was my sister. I love her so much. she seems so down to earth. Chaka is too young to know the words. But she fakes it pretty good. Etta! Wow, that's my girl. Mr. B B. What can i say. Wow!!

[aquamarine11500]

@ChristianGranny1 NO Chaka wan't that young,i'm sure they had rehearsals,she just decided to show up in the clouds,high As HELL.Don't get me wrong she did the durn thang,but she was a little pitchy and she ha the hiccups ..lol

[cjm608]

wowwwwweeeee! what a treat this is. they were ALL great!

[Kaalec]

Chaha's out of her element here. Gladys and Etta are magnificent.

[forloxsake]

Miss Etta OWNS this!!!!!

[luckystar1985]

chaka the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

@luckystar1985 Chaka is pretty good.

[UnIndio]

Sorry, I love Chaka Khan, but she just does NOT belong in this singing trio!!!!!

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

I thought she was pretty good.

[San47di]

I have to agree w/ you on that one. Chaka Khan knows absolutely nothing about singing the Blues & she's totally out of her element & league here & it shows big time!

[ATP6165]

Loving this performance here. All of them did a wodnerful job. But Chaka, dont know what the hell she was saying, but she said it wit soul! Loving it!

[gildamusica]

eu peço desculpas porque sou braziliam e escrevo muito pouco em inglês, mas eu adoro Gladys Knigth, ela é muito especial pra mim

[WiseKibrent]

Estupendo!!!! Great!!! Thanks for this video!!!

[chakafan2]

Each of these ladies were having their issues at the time of this performance. Chaka was an addict at the time, Etta was a self-described addict at the time and Gladys was addicted to gambling.

These are great singers with common human frailties. Everyone should shut-up and enjoy the music.

[svrider61]

I luv the way Gladys knight dismiss some of the lyrics

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

Improvisation.

[kizzlentertainment]

Little Did You Guys Know, Chaka Was High The Majority Of Time She Was Performing....

[mrmusiquecritique]

You think??

[Blessed3175]

Wow, 4 heavyhitters in their own right. I love it!!

[luvtinaturnerlots]

[Lukin4SumthnReal]

Gladys Knight looks so beautiful then and NOW!!!

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

She is gorgeous.

[DQ2k7]

LOL... chakha is a great singer... but she's singing with 2 of the most gifted females artist in the world.. also chakha doesnt have as much of a soulful tamber to her voice than etta and gladys

[paddeyOmalley]

know your music history..Chaka is MUCH MORE than just a great singer! talking about GIFTED,,go do some research on Chaka! dont be too ignorant

[cmelmoneyman]

wha the heck is soul tamber..oh you mean timber..wow shows how much about music you know when you can even spell timber...Chaka Khan is one of the SOUL greats..her energy makes this performance interesting..notice how they need her to take it up the octave to bring the song to another level...SIT DOWN you've just been SKOOLED!!!

[DQ2k7]

@cmelmoneyman lol.. i spelt it wrong deliberately.. but just a heads up timber is wood.. i think you were looking to spell timbre...LOL

[SupaLicious]

Chak is the greatest singer ever lived. Don't hate.

[gildamusica]

desde que eu começei a ouvir suas músicas, eu fiquei fiquei muito impressionado e admiiro muito pela beleza que ela deixou pra nós, eu fico muito contente por tudo que ela nos fez, por ser tão maraviilhosa ( Gladys Knigth )

[aprigirl]

They were all great! My 2 favorite voices Gladys Knight and Chaka Khan. Etta was fabulous she was that bluesy voice.

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

Thank you for viewing and commenting.

[higgybaby1]

Chaka is high as hell in this video I was there.

[witheyeslikethese]

Etta James and Gladys Knight are positively delightful in this, as always. Chaka Khan looks like an idiot!

[yodiggiddy]

Gladys Knight and Etta James, love your soulful, gospel sound. YOu have such strength and talent in your voice.

Chaka Khan? I don't know what the hell you were doing with all of that wailing.

[rbfanforlife]

OMG!! Is that much talent allowed on one stage anymore!?? I love the short bit showing how well the harmonica player got into it... great video, thanks for posting!!

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

You are welcome.

[mightabeenking]

THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!! whew....all that and bb. MINDBLOWING!!!

[gildamusica]

olá Glads como vai, eu to ouvindo suas músicas e to adorando

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

Obrigado para a visão e comentar.

[sandydidit]

They've all got great voices (natch), but I'm usually on Team Etta. Listening to Gladys and Chaka (who looks ready to collapse) trying to go all elaborate with this simple tune, it's hilarious to watch James decide, "WTF, I'll just melt the stage with a Godzilla blast of my voice." Great stuff!

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

Empress Gladys doesn't "try to go all elaborate", it's so effortless with her. But thanks for viewing and commenting.

[dannpenn]

Etta's voice so powerful ,very amazing

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

This was released in November 2005, but I believe the original show was in 1987.

[jermoncarter]

what year was this

[jmjunkie]

Awesome!

[marfulton]

Chaka Khan is fucked up(high as hell) in this footage!

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

This may be during the time of her well-publicized drug addiction. But she, nevertheless, does a good job on her part.

[lotuswords]

EPIC. love chaka!!!!

[SgtSlugger]

How Sweet is is!LOL! I just loved it

[EMPRESSGLADYS]

You know it.

[jamescnix]

best book ever written on the subject of our freedoms and our consition "Ain't nobodies business if i do" by Peter macwilliams - Billie Holidays lines being sung here so well by etta and co. the subtitle of the book is telling..."The Absurdity of CONSENSUAL Crimes in a FREE Society" Ain't NOBODIES BUSINESS IF I DO (Now lets dismantle the police state we live in and get busy being really FREE!

[llmack]

OMG Damn chaka get it, luved it all,
