IS that "Thelma Frye"/"Dee" from Amen & Wayans Brothers at 3:40?

[LOVESOMEGLADYS]

You know, I questioned that to when I read it. I'm thinking it might have been her mom or something considering when this was made.

Sang Empress Sang!

@higgybaby1 I'm way, way late, but it's her. Her wiki says she was a producer on PBS' Soul! from 1967-1973.

I can't take it !!

I must have listened to this song at least 20 times today.

They are sing LIVE!!!!!...The band is smoking..The BGV are so clear.

And Gladys is SLAYING this tune.

It's VERY rare when a LIVE performance exceeds the original recording.

Gladys & the Pips Killed on this tune..

Listening to this particular performance made me appreciate the Pips EVEN more.

Those brothers are BLOWING on the BGV !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the BEST performance that Glayds has ever did.

This video is very VERY rare...This show was directed by Stan Lathan (Sanna Lathan's father...Stan also produced the "Fresh Prince of Bel Aire).

The Legendary DJ, Mr Gerry Bledson (From NYC) did the voiceover

Stan Lathan also produced this LEGEDARY concert

The 1973 Save The Children Benefit Concertildren

Check it out when you can !!!!

This is from the pre-PBS New York TV show "Soul! from February 9, 1972, where Anna Marie-Hosford (Thelma Frye on "Amen" and Dee BAxter on "The Wayan Brothers" got her start as assistant producer). One of the writers of this song was Katherine Anderson Schaffner of The Marvelettes. Another excellent version of this song was done by fellow Marvelette Ann Bogan when she was part of Love, Peace & Happiness (a division of New Birth) along with Leslie & Melvin Wilson (also on YouTube).
