I attended with my mother (who was visiting from NYC). It was great to learn of all the songwriting adventures Ashford & Simpson had together throughout the years. All the hits they're responsible for in R & B genre. Those songs have outlived many of the artists who originally recorded them (Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye, etc.). Also, I grew up (in Brooklyn) with the bass player's (Eluriel Tinker Barfield) two sons and am happy to see him back on the stage after such a long hiatus from the music industry. My mother and I were in seventh heaven after leaving The Canyons. What a great experience.

Incredible show. They are powerful singers and the band and back up singers were fabulous. They really played to the audience so we had a great time. They are as good as they ever were and look great also.
