Double Exposure [1976] - Ten Per Cent [Salsoul #12D-2008]


Alluded to yesterday on the Instant Funk post, here's the very first commercially available 12" single "Ten Per Cent" by Double Exposure released on Salsoul. Unfortunately the 9:48 Walter Gibbons mix is not available on Spotify but the 7:07 album (and flip side to the 12") mixed by joint label owner Ken Cayre is.

The group formed in 1961 with members Leonard 'Butch' Davis, Charles Whittington, Jimmy Williams and Joe Harris. They were originally known as the United Image and released two singles, "Love's Creeping Up on Me" on Stax in 1971 and "The African Bump" on Branding Iron in 1972.

They were friends with Norman Harris who brought them to Salsoul in 1975 and produced all three of their albums. Their debut album "Ten Percent" was reissued digitally this year.
