WASHINGTON, DC: MELBA MOORE AT BLUES ALLEY
The iconic Melba Moore will perform atBLUES ALLEY (1073 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Washington, DC - 202-337-4141) on Friday & Saturday, August 1st & 2nd with shows at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. Depending on what page you turn to in the story of Melba Moore, you might get a completely different impression of the artist. Turn to the mid-'60s and you'll find her backing up Dionne Warwick and Aretha Franklin. Towards the end of that decade, she's replacing Diane Keaton in Hair, and a few years later she's taking home a Best Supporting Actress Tony Award for her role of Lutibelle in Purlie. Fast forward to the R&B charts in the middle of the 1980's and her name is liberally dotting the page while also surfacing on the ballot for a Grammy nomination: "Best Rock Performance, Female" for "Read My Lips." Turn the television on and there she is on her sitcom, Melba. At the dawn of the 1990's, she's rebounding from welfare only to emerge as a successful gospel artist while revisiting her stage roots.
