Allmusic[1]

Allmusic editor Alex Henderson wrote that Miss Gladys Knight "usually finds the singer walking a fine line between R&B and adult contemporary [...] Although pleasant and decent, Miss Gladys Knight isn't a masterpiece and isn't among her essential recordings. This album is only recommended to collectors [...]."[1]
