Last week I went to a rehearsal for the Motown Tribute show at SIR. In a small studio I met Martha Reeves – one of my all time favorites- and heard her singing Heatwave and Dancing in the Streets right there. Those songs were anthems for my teen years in London.

Ms Dionne Warwick was rehearsing that same day and Melba Moore – soul divas – and I was there to shoot them.

Next day at Carnegie Hall I heard Dennis Edwards from the Temptations – an amazing voice sounding better than ever -he was rehearsing with Boyz to Men.

Came back later for the show -the musicians looked fine and the show was a sold out success – an 11 year old kid from the Apollo sang a Michael Jackson song and stole the show.
