The Harlem Gospel Choir, the most famous gospel choir in America and one of the preeminent gospel choirs worldwide, brings the music of Harlem and the black church to Times Square in a joyous celebration of high-energy, hand-clapping singing and dancing. Made up of the finest singers and musicians from Harlem's black churches and the New York/Tri-State area, the choir strives to create a better understanding of African-American culture and make the world a more loving and peaceful place. Allen Bailey was inspired to create the choir in 1986 after attending a celebration at Harlem's Cotton Club in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. That inspiration can be felt in the music today, as the choir's uplifting songs of hope touch the soul and raise the spirit.

My Finance and I had a great time despite the snow and rain weather NY was having the show was good it was all in Acoustics and John still sounded good as ever. We actually have a chance to meet with him personally for a backstage autograph and he and his group were very warm and friendly and we wished them a safe trip back home. Service was good, drinks are good but I would not recommend the food it could be alittle more better. Seen a couple of shows there already and had a good time each time at BB Kings despite the food.Written on Dec 14 2007
Suggestion: if you are hungry go elsewhere and just settle down for the drinks and the show!

Description
John Waite cut five albums and had numerous top 40 hits with The Babys before moving to New York to go solo during the early 1980s. His first album, Ignition, boasted the MTV/rock radio staple Change. In 1984, he found himself at Number One on the hit parade with Missing You. The song topped the international charts. Twenty years on, this classic remains a radio staple around the globe.
He also hit the top of the charts during a two-album tenure with the pop/rock super group Bad English. The bands No. 1 single When I See You Smile sparked sellout concert tours and a succession of Billboard Hot 100 hits. But when the groups spark was gone, Waite packed his bags and returned to life a solo songsmith.
During the Nineties and early Zeroes, John has refused to live on former glory. He prefers to balance his life between singing on stage, composing and recording honest, heartfelt solo albums. He has written and recorded several songs for Hollywood movies. For kicks (and perhaps honor as a diehard Beatles fan), he even enjoyed a brief stint on a recent Ringo Starr concert tour.
John Waite has plenty to offer on his new album, The Hard Way. Beyond the addictive title cut lie some terrific pop/rock tunes.
