Friday music -15 January 2010

Produced by Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, for their label Philadelphia International in 1975. Written by Gene McFadden, John Whitehead and keyboard player Victor Carstarphen (former Temptations' MD). Vocal - the late Teddy Pendergrass, who died this week.

McFadden and Whitehead wrote "Backstabbers" for the O'Jays, and went on to have their own hit with "Ain't No Stopping Us Now". Both are dead - Whitehead was shot working a car in Philadelphia in 2004. McFadden died from cancer in 2006. Can't track down Victor - anyone else help ?
