The great ones endure, and "Empress of Soul" Gladys Knight has long been one of the greatest. She has had No. 1 recordings in pop, gospel, R&B and adult contemporary ("Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me," "I Hope You Dance"). All told, Knight has recorded more than 38 albums over the years. Her newest release is the gospel album Where My Heart Belongs.

The Spinners' shows are defined by uptempo R&B with precision choreography. With more than 60 million records sold during their illustrious career, including chart-toppers like "Then Came You," "Could It Be I'm Falling in Love" and "Working My Way Back to You," the mighty Spinners received six Grammy nominations. They have performed for Presidents and have appeared on TV too many times to count.
