Are there any big time 70's soul singers left besides Al Green? It seems like they are all dead now.
Teddy certainly did some fantastic work with Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes.
RIP

All I can think of is Eddie Murphy scream-singing, "YOU GOT YOU GOT YOU GOT WHAT I NEED!!!"

Anyone hear the story of how when Teddy had his accident that put him in the wheel chair, that he was totally high on the junk and driving with a tranny ?
