There are other family groups that started off as kids and continued to work for decades, but in other genres of music. For r&b and soul music though, the first example that comes off the top of my head would probably be Gladys Knight & the Pips.

I don't see what's so incredible about this footage, though. It's just a soundcheck. They're not doing anything any different than any performer that has a soundcheck the day of a show. It's a very normal part of the daily routine when you are performing or on tour, whether it's a cabaret style facility, open air park, or yes, even a stadium....

Gotta say that I'm still loving the clothes, though

...i didn't know gladys knight had worked as a child. I guess the span of their "starpower" career was only about what, 15 solid years???

THey were young, who cares???
