Recorded close to the release of the landmark Teddy album and his first solo hit single, "Close The Door," Teddy! Live In ’79 captures the magic and the heat of this mighty soulman’s legendary live performances. In addition to his solo material, Teddy also performs a medley of his biggest Harold Melvin And The Blue Notes hits and belts out a soulful cover of Eric Carmen’s "All By Myself," which has never appeared on a Teddy Pendergrass release until now.

This documentary explores the rise of Teddy Pendergrass, the first male African American artist to record five consecutive platinum albums against the backdrop of 1960s America, and his comeback after a life-changing accident.

Live Aid was a dual-venue concert that was held on 13 July 1985. The event was organized by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure to raise funds for relief of the ongoing Ethiopian famine. Billed as the "global jukebox", the event was held simultaneously in Wembley Stadium in London, England, United Kingdom (attended by 72,000 people) and John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States (attended by about 100,000 people). On the same day, concerts inspired by the initiative happened in other countries, such as Australia and Germany. It was one of the largest-scale satellite link-ups and television broadcasts of all time: an estimated global audience of 1.9 billion, across 150 nations, watched the live broadcast.[2
