The most interesting song during Wright's set was "Tonight's the NightYou Make Me a Woman," a song she wrote, dealing with "her first time." Wright displayed a lot of charm and class with the song, which could have easily had been turned into an orgasmic disco tune by someone else. OPENING ACT for the concert was Lenny Williams, which surprised several late arrivers who expected the Oakland, Calif, singer to perform after Betty Wright.
