Spelling question

[edit]

Note from creating the page: the place may have used the spelling "Theatre," which would have been consistent with its 70s-faux-upscale marketing (e.g., the champagne bar). See, e.g., this court decision, which can be assumed to use the formal corporate name correctly. The place's ubiquitous-at-the-time logo did not include that word, though, it only said, in lowercase letters, "the front row," and every secondary source that I found uses the "Theater" spelling, so I chose that one.

Notes on list of performers

[edit]

Many, many more artists could be added. I just picked a few as highlights. I tried to order them by date they first played the Front Row, from the limited information (& time) available. To supplement the information on the page and help to maintain the list's order, the first artist that I listed for each year follows:

  • 1974 - Sammy Davis Jr.
  • 1975 - none
  • 1976 - Harry Belafonte
  • 1977 - Dionne Warwick/Isaac Hayes
  • 1978 - O'Jays
  • 1979 - Marvin Gaye
  • 1980 - Bill Cosby
  • 1981 - Alice Cooper
  • 1982 - Peter Tosh
  • 1983 - Jimmy Buffett
  • 1984 - Bobbby Womack
  • 1985 - Whitney Houston
  • 1986 - Jay Leno
  • 1987 - Diana Ross
  • 1988 - Miriam Makeba/Hugh Masekela
  • 1989 - none
  • 1990 - Bob Newhart
  • 1991 - Salt-N-Pepa
