Gladys Knight [2015] - Soon [Many Roads Records]


If you've not heard "Soon" from Gladys Knight then you're in for a treat. A reworking of the Commodore's classic "Zoom" (1977) blended with S.O.S. Band's "Tell Me If You Still Care" (1983) (sampled recently by Yummy Bingham on her single "Tell Me"). 

It was released as a single in 2015 and followed her gospel album "Where My Heart Belongs" and has a gospel feel. It reached top 5 on UK soul chart in 2015.

Surprisingly, "Zoom" was never released as a single in the US (only UK and Holland) and the album it came from was titled "Zoom" in Europe and "Commodores" in US and rest of the world.

Thanks again to Gary Van Den Bussche who played it on his show today and also promoted it back in 2015.
