This blog is named after a book by Jacqueline Jones Royster. While my goals for this blog are not quite as lofty as Ms. Royster's (promoting literacy and social change) I do intend to address ideas, philosophies, and policies that need to change. Since I consider myself a sociologist I will focus on anything social, which basically covers everything under the sun and then some. Topics will include my take on politics, music, sports, family issues, literature, to name a few.
I am a middle-aged woman who recently relocated to the Dallas area after spending the last sixteen years in Long Beach California. I am originally from Flint, Michigan. Although I have lived in the West and I am currently in the south, my belief system is strongly rooted in my midwestern upbringing.
I enjoy bowling and rollerskating whenever I get the chance. I also spend much of my time reading and listening to music.
This week the theme is Crooners. I could have went with the obvious, i. e. Luther Vandross, Marvin Gaye, Frankie Beverly or even my beloved Stevie Wonder. However I decided to go with arguably the most exciting crooner of the seventies, The Teddy Bear himself, Teddy Pendergrass. He had jeans named after him and even had concerts attended by a female ONLY audience. Unfortunately his world crumbled on one fateful night when an tragic automobile accident left him a quadriplegic.
I love this man. My mama use to tell me stories about how hot his concerts were. Women falling out, women throwing panties. His music still does something to me...
What a gorgeous picture of Teddy Pendergrass. I still can't believe what an incredible life story he has and how long since he has made his way in public performances. I also felt my heart strings pulled thinking of Luthar Vandross who I loved.
Good choice Pjazzy. While over Eddie's house the other night, we were talking and drinking as we listened to an Old School R&B station on satellite radio. One of the songs they played is my favorite TP song, Come Go With Me.

I see you went straight in for the kill. I hope everyone keeps their panties on for this one. ;-)
I love this man. My mama use to tell me stories about how hot his concerts were. Women falling out, women throwing panties. His music still does something to me...
Id throw my panties at him for real.
Wow, Teddy! That man's voice could melt an iceberg!
I had to go with my very first crush on a male singer but I added a little drama because I was having a hard time choosing and had to narrow it down!
I remember those stories too, Mrs. G...that's what got me to listening to Teddy P...I needed to know what exactly was the deal.
I now know...
All this crooning has me swooning. Got my panties on though!!
Have a Blessed Weekend.
Light and Love all the day Long.

What a gorgeous picture of Teddy Pendergrass. I still can't believe what an incredible life story he has and how long since he has made his way in public performances. I also felt my heart strings pulled thinking of Luthar Vandross who I loved.
I think I might go pick up Pendergrass's autobiography, inspired by this post...

Luther, Marvin and Teddy are 3 of my favorites. What's goin' on?
