What huge Disco masterpiece is "You Can't Hide From Yourself". Definitely a 'must-have-it' kind. It's easy to realize that the seventies brought most of the greatest vocals of the contemporary dance music, and the ones of Teddy Pendergrass are situated among them, no doubt about it. This is a singer that shall be remembered not only for his solo career, but also for what he did on Harold Melvin And The Blue Notes - times when Soul and the other styles of dance music were often seen together.

Rated 5/5

"You Can't Hide From Yourself" and "The More I Get, The More I Want" are such wonderful songs that will rock any party. Great voice, melody with a uplifting peak-time Disco/Soul vibe. Words aren't enough to describe these songs and it's impossible for me to imagine that anybody would not adore them. Music like this isn't made anymore, thats why this is such a essential release. Highly Recommended!
