Theodore DeReese "Teddy" Pendergrass (March 26, 1950 – January 13, 2010) was an American R&B/soul singer and songwriter. He first rose to fame as lead singer of Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes in the 1970s before a successful solo career at the end of the decade. In 1982, Pendergrass was severely injured in an auto accident in Philadelphia, resulting in his being paralyzed from the chest down. He subsequently founded the Teddy Pendergrass Alliance, a foundation that helps those with spinal cord injuries. He commemorated 25 years of living after his spinal cord injury with the star-filled event, "Teddy 25 - A Celebration of Life", at Philadelphia's Kimmel Center. His last performance was on a PBS special at Atlantic City's Borgata Casino in November 2008.
Early life
Born Theodore DeReese Pendergrass on March 26, 1950 at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he was the only child of Jesse and Ida Geraldine (née Epps) Pendergrass. When he was still very young, his father left the family; Jesse was fatally chest-stabbed on June 13, 1962. Pendergrass grew up in Philadelphia and sang often at church. He dreamed of being a pastor and got his wish when, at 10, he was ordained a minister (according to author Robert Ewell Greene). Pendergrass also took up drums during this time and was a junior deacon of his church. He attended Thomas Edison High School for Boys in North Philadelphia (now closed). He sang with the Edison Mastersingers. He dropped out in the eleventh grade to enter the music business, recording his first song "Angel With Muddy Feet". The recording, however, was not a commercial success.
Released in 1977. It did well for a debut album, reaching #17 on the USBillboard 200 and #5 on the BillboardR&B albumchart. Two singles were released: "I Don't Love You Anymore"; and "The Whole Town's Laughing at Me", reaching #41 pop & #5 R&B; and R&B #16, respectively.
From a Basement on the Hill is the sixth and final studio album by the late American singer-songwriterElliott Smith. Recorded between 2002 and 2003, it was released posthumously in the UK and Europe on Domino on October 18, 2004, and in the US the following day on October 19, 2004 through record label ANTI-.
The album was initially planned as a double album, due to contractual obligations with the DreamWorks label (now Interscope), and was incomplete at the time of Smith's death. Many of the songs Smith intended for the album remained unfinished, in some cases only lacking vocals. Smith's family hired his former producer Rob Schnapf and ex-girlfriend Joanna Bolme to sort through and put the finishing touches on the batch of over thirty songs that were recorded for the album, although the estate retained final decision of which tracks to include. Thus, a fifteen-track album was assembled and released.
Many of the songs reference Smith's lifelong struggles with drug addiction and depression. His death was presumed to be a suicide, although the coroner's report and statements from close friends reveal that his death is still under speculation. It was not investigated further.
Coast to Coast is a UK-based American restaurant chain specialising in American foods. The company was established in 2011 and currently has 21 restaurants across the country with more set to open. They are run by Restaurant Group, who also own Chiquito (restaurant) and Frankie & Benny's

The Filling Station restaurants are the Scottish equivalent and are also run by the Restaurant Group
Coast To Coast is the fourth studio album by English rock band The Dave Clark Five. It's notable for containing two U.S. and U.K. songs "Anyway You Want It" and "Everybody Knows (I Still Love You)". Other songs from this album were used in the Dave Clark Five film "Having A Wild Weekend (Catch Us If You Can in the U.K.)" such as "I Can't Stand It" and "When".
