Without a doubt Pendergrass' masterpiece. Absolute start-to-finish record, and very few albums exist in this world that have no skips. This is one of them.

This man could not do no wrong by the time this album came out! I was a kid when this came out, so I didn't get it when I saw women going buck wild when Teddy sang "Close The Door". Now I get it! But there was much more to this album that meets the ears. "Only You, "Get Up, Get Down, Get Funky, Get Loose" and the title track, keeps this album on the funky disco side of things. "It Don't Hurt Now" was a terrific slow jam, tailor made for Teddy's vocals. "When Somebody Loves You Back" was not only the perfect album closer, it was one of Teddy's classiest songs. This was when Women were throwing themselves at him. Besides that though, he was a great singer to me, and these songs really expressed that point.
Why don't you add the musicians to the credits!! Sheesh! They need proof to show that they recorded on these tunes!!
