Biography

Theodore DeReese Pendergrass, Sr. was born on March 26, 1950 in Philadelphia and would go on to be one of the leading soul singers of the Philadelphia Soul sound. His career really started when his band, titled Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes even though "Teddy" was the lead singer, was signed to Philadelphia International Records in 1972 by songwriting duo Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must buy for True Soul Fans!!, May 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Life Is a Song Worth Singing (Audio CD)

This album is a true classic of soul music and should get more recognition. Teddy displays his vocal range and talents on such songs as "Close the Door" and "It Don't Hurt Now." Primarily known for his love ballads this album has the full scope of soul music with songs that touch the heart, mind and erotic side of any willing listener. Buy now and you'll never take it out of your cd rotation.

4.0 out of 5 stars The album that made Teddy a solo superstar!, August 24, 2003

Justo Roteta (Los Angeles, California United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Life Is a Song Worth Singing (Audio CD)

This was Teddy's second album and "Close The Door" virtually guaranteed he would continue to be the #1 male R&B singer of the 1970s. His self-titled solo debut had set the prototype for his subsequent PIR releases but this one became his most successful project thanks to "Only You", "Get Up, Get Down, Get Funky, Get Loose" and the above-mentioned classic ballad.
