5.0 out of 5 stars WHAT CAN I REALLY SAY????, March 5, 2005

By	Growly Pants (Philadelphia) - See all my reviews

They dont make music like this anymore. And it's unfortunate. Teddy Pendergrass MEANT IT when sang a song. You can feel it. You can taste it. Soul R&B from this era is totally different from what it is today. These guys actually cared about their music FIRST. The almighty dollar was nice, dont get me wrong, but for artists like Teddy Pendergras, Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Freddie Jackson, Jeffrey Osbourne, etc. their music, and the quality of their music, came first. Todays artists will put out any old piece of crap just for the money. Their music has no soul. This is a beautiful album. I love to put this album on and just let it run. Teddy has such a beautiful voice and his lyrics come right from his heart and soul. When Mr. Pendergrass is hurting in a song, the listeneer is also hurting. This music is timeless. I wish todays artists would wake up.

5.0 out of 5 stars The MAN's man's balladeer..., April 12, 2003

By	Nathan "Cawntry-fried Calypso Beach Bum" (Charlotte, N.C. United States) - See all my reviews

Alright, class, I don't think I ask for much in my music, na'mean? Jus' a nice groove, lush n' firm vocals an' some content I can relate to. Not even necessarily relate to, jus' sumpin' with SUBSTANCE, 'cause my mind is starved for that in this year 2003. I grew up hearin' Teddy Pendergrass, my sister was ALL ABOUT some Teddy P. an' I picked it up from that point. Is' jus' that voice, is' guttural an' raw yet seductive at the same time, e'nuff 'ta work two bodies up into a frenzy. Serious point though, listen to this at nighttime, by a fireplace, with a woman, an' some wine. She might think you pourin' it on a lil' thick when she heats 'Love T.K.O.' an' 'Close the Door', but when that 'Turn Out the Lights' comes on, ohhhh man, is' ON! Teddy'll be screamin' an' shoutin' an' you'll be pretty much sangin' along. This disc is a must fa' the bachelor's pad or the player's ball, 'cause if you think you got game an' your collection is missin' Teddy P., then, son, you don't have no idea what you're doin'. Alright, class dismissed. For homework tonight, go buy this CD. If I don't see no struttin' or no confident smiles when y'all come back, I'm'a mark you down as a zero, 'cause I'll know you ain't do your homework.

back in the day Teddy Pendergrass had alot of Classic SLow Jams."Close the Door" was a Monster Jam as was "Love T.K.O".Pendergrass's SOulful Voice&the Philly Sound went Hand&Hand.this is a Must for Fans of Strong Slow JamsPowerful Vocalists.
