Central Park 1974

by Melanie

supported by

James Baldwin it's so cool that concerts I always wanted to hear are being made avaliable through Bandcamp, Cleopatra records and Easy action records. The pieces of a life are being put together to enjoy and Melanie left us with this joy. Thanks to Beau, Dave and, the girls for these blessings. Melanie's voice will be with us forever.

melart5269 Another live concert by my favorite female music artist, Melanie! From one of her very early public performances, there are some of her recognized fan favorites here as well as two selections I have never heard her sing before - Jason and The Ballad of Penny Evans. A new treasure in my Melanie collection!!!

about

Melanie Nashville, Tennessee

Pieces of a career, scattered by the winds of experience and assembled again by the force of love into the most personal and brilliant moments of her musical journey. Melanie is poised to enlighten new generations about what it means to sing with both passion and eloquence, to write at once with intelligence and emotion, and to inspire through song. Nobody does this better.
