In town for an AFTRA Lifetime Achievement Award, the legendary Sam
Moore performed at the Highline Ballroom on Sunday night. The
consummate showman began his set from a booth in the back, teasing the
crowd with “Hold on, I'm Coming,” till the boyish 74 year old made his
way to the stage.
A perfect concert followed, featuring a first-rate band, backup singers
including a rocking Chrissy Poland, and his trademark tunes, “Knock on
Wood,” “What I Want,” “I Can't Stand the Rain,” and “Blame it on the
Rain,” until he sang “When Something is Wrong With My Baby” and someone
shouted out: “Not here tonight.”
And then the unexpected: Sam called Ryan Shaw to the stage. Shaw had
performed an opening set, remarking that he was honored that The Sam
Moore even knew who he was. The music child of Ashford and Simpson, who
just happened to be listening in, as was Steve Van Zandt, Shaw then
performed with Moore and Valerie Simpson. “Soul Man,” “Dance to the
Music.” The music from Shaft paid homage to Isaac Hayes and then Moore,
Shaw and Simpson performed “You are so Beautiful” in tribute to Billy
Preston. The show ended with Sam's “A Rainy Night in Georgia.”
As you congratulate Sam Moore on a great show and the award he so well
deserves, he comes back, serious: “how about those fish 'n' chips you
were munching on? I didn't get any.” I went home and played his CD,
Overnight Sensation. I just didn't want the music to end.

I like this part of the post:"With a recurring role on The Tudors as well, you might say Anwar is getting better parts than she did in her first blush of fame. And that makes the world seem a little more right." is verygood
