Just so happens I made this list in Google Docs about a year ago when I was trying to remember everyone I saw. Some of these acts were in concert together so that's why I got to see so many. I went to the Apollo Theater in Harlem, N.Y. a few times in my late teens and early twenties.

Angie Bofill
Chico Hamilton
Chuck Jackson
Earth, Wind & Fire
George Benson
Gladys Knight
Gregory Hines & Phyllis Heyman in Sophisticated Ladies

Natalie Cole
Noel Pointer
Otis Redding
Patti & The Blue Bells (who later became known as LaBelle)
Queen Esther Marrow (when she played Auntie Em in the Wiz...later met Esther who's good friends with my BFF and we hung out together. Esther has toured with Bob Dylan).
Ramsey Lewis
Ruth Brown
The Spinners (twice)
Shirley Caesar
Stacy Keach (I forgot the name of the play he starred in but I was so into him at the time, I had to go see it )
Stephanie Mills (twice...when she was young and played Dorothy in The Wiz and when she opened for The Whispers)
Stevie Wonder (when he was Little Stevie Wonder)
Tito Puente
The Whispers

I've seen other artists who are well known in the region for their talents such as Hunter Hayes and Radam Schwartz, each several times. It is said that George Benson loved to go to The Crosswords where Radam headed Jazz Jam night just to "jam with Radam".

I was never a big fan of live performances. The only Broadway show I went to was Pippin. As for music, I took in one day of the Calif-Fornia World Music Festival in 1979 (Eddie Money, Van Halen, Boomtown Rats, etc.), and I saw Jan & Dean in concert at Disneyland. Quite a few years ago, Sylvain Sylvain (from the New York Dolls) was appearing at a local club, but I didn't go because I couldn't find anybody to go with me.
