TEDDY Tribute
That was the late Teddy Pemberton, better known to Edmonton as deejay T.E.D.D.Y. of The Black Experience in Sound. At the beginning of May, Teddy Pemberton passed away in New York. Tonight is my tribute to this city´s finest deejay and the radio-voice role model for a generation of deejays, on TTD, CJSR.
T.E.D.D.Y. Five letters that suggest so much to a generation of radio listeners in the greater Edmonton area. Along with Chuck Chandler from CHED, Teddy was a definitive radio presence--much imitated, never duplicated. But unlike Chandler, New Yorker Teddy Pemberton hit local airwaves through CJSR with a cutting-edge mix of reggae, hip hop and jazz, but mostly funk and rhythm & blues.
His radio time among us began back in 1980, before CJSR had an FM license and was narrowcasting at the University of Alberta campus only. Beginning in 1984, the FM88 broadcast sent Teddy´s captivating, magnetic voice, a virtual embodiment of style, confidence, sexuality and masculinity, to Edmontonians, most of whom knew little of American-African music beyond disco. But remember, this was 1984. Teddy´s FM broadcast began just when the covertly racist and homophobic attack on disco had reached its depth. Some listeners may recall the televised smashings of disco records, may recall radio stations advertising that they played no disco, and that "disco sucked."
For Teddy to bring a line-up of non-pop, American Black music to Edmonton at this time, demonstrates the degree to which he was a true CJSR pioneer--in fact, he may very well have invented the expression "E-Town." His programme the Black Experience in Sound, which eventually dominated CJSR´s Saturday night line-up for years, was the station´s highest-rated programme. Ironically, no matter how hugely popular his 10-midnight show was, the very time of that slot didn´t translate into huge revenues during annual CJSR fund drives.
Tonight we´ll hear some excerpts from one of Teddy´s shows from Fund Drive in October 2000, some of his superb radio funkified deejayisms, his musical selections, and a conversation I had with Teddy at CJSR studios in the spring of that year. Along the way, he´ll explain the origin of his famous acronym moniker, TEDDY.
