Gladys Knight topped the US charts with this wonderful soul classic in 1973. It did not become a hit in the UK until it was reissued in 1976, then it made the Top 10 here.
I used to wonder about what a pip was. Good song that was ideal for her voice.
The word "pip" has more than one meaning. I don't know which meaning Gladys Knight's backing group was supposed to be, I've never thought of that before. Lol:)
