Episode: Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes "Wake Up Everybody" and New Music from Carli Brill and St. Panther
Description: Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes featuring Teddy Pendergrass were one of the pillars of the mighty Philadelphia International Records label run by Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff. On their fourth album (and last with Pendergrass) mixed social issues with quiet storm and the results were an album that – despite hitting #1 on the R&B charts in 1975 and producing a ubiquitous disco hit – still seems underappreciated to this day.Join us as we discuss this phenomenon plus share recent discoveries by Carli Brill and St. Panther on an all-new episode of the all-new Discologist.
