It is the culmination of the \"crying\" era, when young Gladys Knight sang with pain and hope.\n\n\n\nThe ballads, written by Van McCoy (later known for \"The Hustle\") when he was still unknown, have an introspective and melancholy melody, and Gladys's taut vocals and Pips' precise harmonies create a sense of drama. Although \"Giving Up\" was a hit, the album did not receive much attention, but listening to it now, it is a record of the girls' transitional brilliance and the germ of Van McCoy's talent, a record of their soul.\n\nCommentary: All Days Editorial Department\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Giving Up\u003cbr\u003e2.Either Way I Lose\u003cbr\u003e3.Another Love\u003cbr\u003e4.Lovers Always Forgive\u003cbr\u003e5.Daybreak\u003cbr\u003e6.If I Ever Should Fall In Love\u003cbr\u003e7.Tell Her You're Mine\u003cbr\u003e8.Why Don't You Love Me\u003cbr\u003e9.Maybe Maybe Baby\u003cbr\u003e10.Who Knows\u003cbr\u003e11.Go Away, Stay Away\u003cbr\u003e12.Stop \u0026amp; Get A Hold Of Myself\u003cbr\u003e13.What Shall I Do(Bonus Track)\u003cbr\u003e14.Love Call(Bonus Track)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oldays Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51246300823841,"sku":"4571534834165","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4571534834165.jpg?v=1746251595","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-us\/products\/4571534834165","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
