Hey Midnightman, put this one on and just think of what how great music was. This was so visionary and profund! There is nothing being produced today that even comes close. "To Be Invisible" Whew!

Right. That's a stone cold track. Curtis was on some other ISH lol

You don't see producers/writers doing songs like this anymore...

Yes, and I was a complete mess !..... never been so close to royalty before, after a minute or two, and my brain and mouth would work together, I managed to tell her I first fell in love with her back in 1972..... she said "really" and gave me a big hug.... I kept thinking to myself, please don't let me dreaming ! ..... my ALL TIME favourite by a mile !!!!

Looks like Gladys agrees with us or she would not be singing it some 42 years after it was released. A classic by a classy lady!
