Discoed To Death/ Just One Step

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy. I think Latimore speaks for all of us when he describes how the rigid Disco formula was ruining soul music in the late 1970's. It's OK to look back now and select disco tunes that are worth the memory, but at the same time, it's arguable that by 1979, Disco had pretty much killed classic "northern soul" as well as "deep soul" and "motown style" soul music. That's not to say no one was making "real" soul music anymore--they were, and "Discoed To Death" is a good example. It's just that soul artists could no longer make a living by relying on it, because the audience for soul had become a small niche market.
