  • TEDDY & the TWILIGHTS by Charlie Horner & Steve Applebaum
    “Teddy & the Twilights” by Charlie Horner & Steve Applebaum Reprinted with permission from Echoes of the Past, Issue #96 (2011) TEDDY & THE TWILIGHTS by Charlie Horner & Steve Applebaum With Contributions from Pamela Horner Dedicated to the memory of Steve Applebaum Updated from 1977 article in Yesterday’s Memories In 1948 a young group from Baltimore pioneered a new sound in black music that would soon be called Rhythm & Blues. Throughout America’s inner cities, vocal groups sprang up on nearly every corner in response to Sonny Til and The Orioles. In Philadelphia one such group was led by Leonard “Lord Galley” Lewis, himself a native of Baltimore. Leonard was backed by John Odoms [also known as John Williams], Benjamin Hart, and someone remembered only as John. By 1950, the group was playing local clubs, but soon after, a death in his family called "Lord Galley" back to Baltimore. When he decided to remain in Baltimore, the group disbanded. They were not silent long. 1951 saw the rise of The Dominoes and the re-inspiration of black vocal groups every- where. John Odoms formed a new group, asking his younger step-brother, Larry Williams, to sing lead. The brothers grew up in South Philadelphia and attended Franklin High School. As a youngster, Larry remembered R&B groups appearing at the Lincoln Theater, at Broad and Lombard Streets. The new group became Larry Williams (lead), John Odoms (tenor), Wilbur Turner (baritone) and Ben Hart (bass). The group idolized and patterned themselves after The Dominoes, whom they'd seen several times at the old Earle Theater.
