Teddy Pendergrass - Close The Door
I'm a newbie so can't post a link to YouTube yet - but look it up.
I'm almost certain this is the song you are describing - you could easily be forgiven for thinking that you were listening to Barry White when you hear this.
Pendergrass was also a master of the sweet seductive Philly soul song like Barry White; he had powerful gravelly baritone voice (though not quite as deep as White).
The track topped the US R&B Chart and sold over a million in the States. Sadly, it didn't register in the UK and I think that this why it has eluded you for so long.
