- Here’s a show I was hired to do the music production on for PBS that featured Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes, Dee Dee Sharp, The Majors and The Silhouettes. After all these years I still had a VHS copy and proud to had worked with so many talented artist and musicians that I grew up listening to that night. Watch at the very end where the guys do a promo for WHYY. More to come.....Enjoy!

Of course there will be another Teddy P., but this guy has got it!!
There's only one Teddy Pendergrass but this guy is pretty good
That's Teddy Pendergrass if you ordered him of off Wish
@@adamrobinson2078😂
Man please! Only thing *this* dude does even *remotely* as good as TP is sweat. 😂😂
Donnell Gillespie is the only lead they’ve had that comes close to TP
Temu teddy
My generation was the best and thank to those who brought us good music with their own talent. Wish I had a Time Machine and bring them back. May God. Bless all this Soul brothers were ever they are.
👍🏻🙏❤️🕊️
The best set of Blue Notes since the ORIGINALS..
No. Bullshit.
These guys did a great job! Every singer has a great voice and a lot of Soul! I finally got a chance to see Harold Melvin perform the "rap" part on "I Miss You"! I am overjoyed!
I'm loving this ❤ still here 2024❤
Wow what an excellent performance..especially the guy that replaced Teddy Pendergrass..this is the best Harold Melvin tribute nucleus ever
Wonderful evening of entertainment...Thanks for sharing. The Philly sound is great.
There’s no doubt that they sound very very very good. Bring a lot of memories. T this reminds me of you in LA when times were good. Wherever you are.
Harold Melvin you tried very hard to sound like Teddy, and look like Teddy
Harold Melvin, you was better off just being yourself 😉
I could not believe that people thought Teddy pendergrass was you Harold Melvin. No matter how many guys try to sing like Teddy pendergrass. It's going to be a tough act to follow.
You have a lot of women who loves tall and dark skin men. I especially if he's a clean cut, kind of Guy. I would think about
Him, to being my found Teddy pendergrass 🥰
@@margiestreater5959 When in this concert did Harold Melvin 'try' to sound like Teddy Pendergrass?
It appears, at least on this post, that YOU thought Teddy Pendergrass was Harold Melvin, or vice-versa. Harold Melvin isnt confused_____he was the one who hired Teddy in the first place to be a drummer, then as the featured soloist for the group.
Harold Melvin has owned this group since the late 50's and knows what he is doing. I'm just saying that I think you are the one is confused as to the roles on the group.
Absolutely!
I never been to LA.
These boys threw down, now it goes without saying, no one can do it like Teddy, but this guy is holding his own. What I didn't like was the lighting, why was the background so dark, would have like to see the fellas back there. But overall a helluva show👍🏾
Thank you for a wonderful evening ❤
This Guy got it. Teddy would be proud. They sound sooo nice and professional....keep it up...love u guys....
Our Doo Wop group, The Dream Tones, opened for this great group when they just started out in Philly. They were great back when they just started and still the greatest after all these years.
Dope show "" Exceptional group 👏 "" Thank you mr. HEROLD MELVIN "" may you continue to 🙏 RIP""
Lord have mercy. Now these were Harold Melvin's Blue Notes. I've gotten more than my money's worth. Thank you again Mr. or Ms. UA-cam Deejay for sending me this one on Martin Luther King's Birthday. The Wake up Everybody is too apropo. It should be every Believers theme song for 2024. I know Insane Ywain would have played this ENTIRE!! performance on his show......Miss you man.
He is good sounds somewhat like Teddy P i Salute yu brother no one cud come close to Mr.P Rest Easy to both of yu❤❤
Simply beautiful thank you for sharing👏🏽💖
I SAW THE ORIGINAL LINE - UP OF HAROLD & THE BLUE - NOTES IN 2003 AT VICTORY PARK IN SAN JOSE CA . ALONG WITH THE CHI-LITES , DEL - FONICS , STYLISTICS, IT WAS THE 70’S THAT DAY ALRIGHT !!!
It's such a fantastic video,i am so happy I have seen this, these guys are so talented
,
Their music is timeless and will always have good memories for me.x X
I am born and raised in Philly ❤❤❤ love them
What an incredible concert! Thanks for sharing this video
Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes was always My absolute favorite why don't we see the guys dancing on camera .
Thank you so much for this beautiful concert of one of my most favorite groups. Mr. Saunders did an incredible job of recreating the sound and as he brought his own unique flavor. Not an easy thing to do while constantly being compared with someone else. Everyone has their own unique voice so he could not be Teddy no more than Teddy could be him. The whole group did exceptionally well in my humble opinion. It was nice that everyone was able to get a little shine. I hope you have more gems like this to post. Thanks again.
It's such super group and dancing
RIP Billy Spratley from Petersburg, Va right up the highway from my hometown of Waverly, Va.
You were close, his name was William (Bill) Spratley ❤
Yes RIP Billy Spratley, Spratley family from philly waddup Cuzz
He sounds excellent!! Thks for sharing
They sound real good!!!
RIP my sweet humble Gil
They all was so good as always ❤🎉😅😊 😂Love you All
One of the best ever. Like so many other male groups that defined that 70's R&B sound. "Hope we'll be together soon" with Sharon, Teddy and Harold is a masterpiece and the main reason I purchased that album in 1975.
HAROLD MELVIN AND THE
BLUE NOTES. THE GREATEST
Awesome this Philly girl thanks you for this!!!!
They sound good
😂👌This Brotha's GOOD"!!!.
Beautiful soundin,harmony rich❤❤❤😮
Just found this video. Wonder if the group got paid equally, the sane as Harold? Nice performance!
Looks & Sounds Awesome Los!!!!!!!
My generation has some are the best vocals, tops
Yes👍🏻
Miss you Gil😇
Love that Harold Melvin though!!
No one can sing that song like Teddy Penagrass
You Got That Right
Never!!
Pendergrass
You got that Right !!!
Hard2Disagree! &, Idon't...
I still listen to all of their music in which sound of Philly don't make music like this raping has taken over
TP was a natural. Harold M and BN was one of the most underrated groups in music history. 🙏❤️
*he channeled teddy while teddy was still alive❤*
That was frightening
Very frightening.
the lead singer is David Simmons , he used to sing with " Neo Experience " they did recorded two 45's in 1975-1976 , and he did 3 albums from 1979-2015 , he isn't trying to sound like Teddy Pendergrass , that's how he sounds !!! he's a fantastic singer !!!
Great great Harmony!!! Great performance!
I could hear them all day
Harold Melvin put together an ensemble of talented voices. I'm impressed with their vocals & choreography. Close to the Original Blue Notes🎼
MELENINATED - IN SOUL... !
These guys are very good.
He was sosososo unique
...the closest I've heard that comes close to Teddy and the background wasn't bad.
Teddy Could NEVER BE TOUCHED...I FELT DAVID EBO was the BEST lead after TEDDY ..his own Style..Gil Tried rip...
Gil didn’t try….he DID
@Paoula Yes he did.! He had his own flavor
Where is the sound.everyone is saying how good he is but my video has no sound.
@@PaoulaGIL WAS NO TEDDY..NOT EVEN CLOSE..and he was PITCHY...I saw Teddy At Apollo IN 1972 STEAL SHOW from TEMPTATIONS...TEDDY was ELECTRICFYING and Perfect Pitch with Power.
You are so sosososo incredible
Like 721...NYC 👋 WOW!!!😂
I miss T-P no one can sing like him
But this guy is not bad..
Great.
Considering how controlling and jealous Harold was, he spent his last able years trying to recapture a sound that he was guilty of dismantling.
Were you in da group
Will dah real Harold stand up
Philly is a gang banging town
He surely did not look like a Harold, like Teddy.
I just love them 💕 😅
I just love them
Qué tiempos.❤❤❤
❤😊
The lead singer is as close as you can get to the one and only teddy. The sound the facial expressions and they built the same. The best replacement for teddy.
I just never knew why they were called Harold Melvin and the bluenotes ? When Teddy was the man..🤔
Harold started the group in 1954, and owned the group. Teddy Pendergrass was the featured vocalist. He wasn't the first or the last one . . . .
Because this was Mr. Melvin's life's work
These Blue notes seems to me. are as good as or Better than the Original Blue notes🎶🔥❤️👑🎤💋❤️❤️❤️❤️💋
❤❤❤
❤
good but not as good
Fuss is doing his thing!!
That tenner voice is damn good,these guys have super harmony, the ojays, stylistics,spinners,billy paul, the intruders,Jean Carne, three degrees, and a host of great musicians and vocal talent made up Philly sounds and the masters themselves Gamble & Huff.
Rip Harold
You can't replace Teddy 🐻 Pendergrass no matter how you try.
Gil threw down but don't sleep on David Ebo. If you don't know, check out I'd Rather Be By Myself.
Nothing like Teddy Pendergrass without Teddy. The Magic is not there.😢
Where is the sound my video has no sound
He definitely sounds a little like Teddy but there's only one Theodore 🤣
Don’t get me Wrong
He can hit a Good Note 🎵
Just don't like the fact that he is not a solo artist and they don't show the group as much as they should
This was transferred from videotape from 37 years ago. The video is not the best quality. In the original broadcast, the singers were much more visible.
Go🎉femup
He can sing but no way he can hang with teddy
There was only one Harold and then there was one Teddy. After that there was nothing else. It's like trying to replace Eddie Kendricks. Or David ruffin. It's just not going to happen
Well said
Not the Originals but I'll take it,,, Not bad!!🙂🙂
He's got that Pendergrass sound, but to many weird facial expressions on every line..!!
He's "Seriously Involved".........
He sound just like teddy
❤❤❤❤Not "BAD"!!!!!!!!
Teddy Pendergrass
He is lip singing that was Teddy singing the first song
No it wasn’t Teddy singing the first song it was the guy trying to copy Teddy here. He sang on the same level all the song. He sings flat compared to Teddy.
…Sanders sounds more like David Ruffin than the GOAT Teddy😳✔️…Teddy, David and Otis Redding TOP 3 vocalist of all time 💯✔️👑…
This is my first time seeing this preforms... I'm truly upset by this fake ass bad play actor Teddy Pendergrass wannabe!! Truly disgraceful rendition!!! Teddy Pendergrass voice was unmatched the world over. RIP Teddy Pendergrass.
…Teddy Pendergrass is the GREATEST pure singer of all time 💯✔️👑…
He wasnt ; he didnt look dah type like Teddy P
Not the same without Teddy P.
He might sound alright if he would use his natural singing voice. We know he is not Teddy, so he should stop trying to emulate Teddy's voice. There is only one Teddy 🧸
Not bad but not close enough to Teddy.
I agree! Harold Melvin was extremely controlling and greedy person! That was one of the reason Pendergast left the group! They were never able to completely capture that Pendergrass sound! I’m not sure but this might be the lead singer who replaced Pendergrass David Ebo.
2 1/2 per cent TP! This man is trying too hard to sound like a teddy P! He's straining!🤷🏾♀️👎🏾 There's only one Teddy Pendergrass!
-Teddy was the sound that made the Blue Notes.
-Jeffrey Osborne was the sound that made LTD.
-Michael Jackson was the sound that made The Jackson 5.
-Bobby DeBarge was the voice along with the brother who was on the group Frontline of the group Switch!
There's many more!🎙️🎶
RIP Theodore "Teddy" Pendergrass!🕊️🌹🎶🎙️🕺🏾👍🏽
24:54 38:25
They did an awesome job on Miss You..the will never be another Mr Pendergrass,,but they came close...great performance
This guy doesn’t sound as good as Teddy !
No no no can’t be or even mimic Teddy Pendergrass this sounds so horrible sorry just be yourself whoever your are Mr lol 😂 no omg I know this was a flop 😏
Stop hating and just enjoy the damn music!😏
@@willthebestbest9667 😆🤣🤣🤣🤣
People are silly.
Parabéns pelo esforço de tentar substituir Teddy 👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷
As Gil would remark himself, “he didn’t replace Teddy, he took his position”😉 Gil was the most humble gentleman I ever knew 😇
NO TEDDY NO BLUE NOTES BOTTOM LINE...SO STOP'it...I DIG THE TRY THOUGH...
FYI, Gil Saunders was recruited by Teddy and Harold when Teddy. Gil had his own group but in the end, and with Teddy’s persuasion, Gil took the position.In 1982..at 13:48 in this video, you’ll hear Bill introduce Gil as the answer to all their prayers. Gil held the group together for over 10 years.
@@Paoula Aw'So what! He still ain't Teddy..
They’re only one Teddy Lol
I am born and raised in Philly ❤❤❤ love them
