Harold Melvin's Blue Notes got their start in the '50s as The Charlemagnes, adopting the new moniker only after recruiting lead singer Harold Melvin in 1954. They achieved minor success throughout that decade and the '60s, but things really picked up in 1970 with the addition of Teddy Pendergrass -- a vocalist whose contributions to the band ultimately eclipsed those of Melvin himself. With Pendergrass singing lead vocals, The Blue Notes racked up several chart topping albums and singles during the mid-'70s, including epochal No. 1's like "If You Don't Know Me By Now" and "The Love I Lost". Despite their popularity, the band's lineup continued to shift throughout the '70s and '80s, and in 1996 they called it quits after Harold Melvin suffered a debilitating stroke. The group made a triumphant return to the stage in 2013 for the Soul Train Cruise, performing with original member Lloyd Parks -- a seasoned veteran who continues to join the group on their unforgettable tours.
This performance will also feature preshow performances by Spencer Alston, Tia Cheek, and David "Mr. Magic" Hawkins. DJ for the evening will be DJ Maniac.
