RIP Teddy Pendergrass and Jay Reatard

The world lost two great musicians yesterday. Teddy Pendergrass, a Grammy award winning R&B/soul singer and songwriter, died after a long battle with colon cancer at age 59. Jay Reatard, garage punk musician and leader of the Reatards, died in his sleep from unknown causes at the age of 29. I am posting a song from each artist in memorial of the great music they contributed to this world.
