Baby Washington Meets Gladys Knight & the Pips Review

by Steve Leggett

During the early R&B and doo wop era artists often toured in packages, taking the stage for a quick set of four or five songs, then clearing out of the way for the next act to do its four or five songs, and in some ways that's what this "meets" series from Collectables feels like, which combines two complementary acts -- five songs apiece. This one combines vocalists Baby Washington and Gladys Knight, and the pairing works pretty well, although the whole disc is over in 20 minutes. You're going to hear a song or two or three you like, though, and the series is budget priced, so it's a tradeoff. Call it the briefest of introductions to each artist -- just like those old package concert tours.
