I just wish everyone was aware of the greatness of talent this man possessed, and wish his music would be played more on radio. I also love his live performance of "Lady". If you are a Teddy Pendergrass fan I suggest adding to your collection the dvd "if you don't know me". We will NEVER see another great talent like this man. Sadly missed still💔

      Classic Good ole soulful dancing music. Some of the best talent ever born back in the 40's, to grow up and become Legends of the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s. Mowtow the best music & Elvis.

    What’s so sad is that Teddy would be like a revered legend in the realm of Marvin and Luther and maybe even higher if it wasn’t for that damn accident. He went platinum for Teddy Pendergrass , Teddy , Life is a Song Worth Singing and TP in which know black artist had ever done before. As you can probably guess I’m a Teddy super fan and he would be probably the best male solo artist into the 90’s . Teddy is not recognized for the incredible talent he was. R.I.P. and I can’t wait for that concert in heaven .

      If the people in the UK had never heard TEDDY you introduced them to him so maybe you promoted his album
      Did anyone, ask you who was singing.
      I have traveled abroad and found it interesting how many people really are fans of American music, singers, etc.
      Those people weren't laughing, they were thinking 🥰🤗💞💕
