A Portrait of Melba is the seventh album by singer Melba Moore, released in 1977.
Moore's fourth album for Buddah Records, A Portrait of Melba - like Moore's two 1976 Van McCoy-produced albums - primarily aimed the singer at the disco market where Moore had had her first glimmer of success as a recording artist with the 1976 single "This Is It". A Portrait of Melba was produced by the virtuoso Philly soul duo McFadden & Whitehead - their first full album production - and was Moore's first album to be distributed by Arista Records.
