New 45: Milton Davis - Headed for the Disco - Soul 7

Milton Davis - Headed for the Disco / All I Want to Do - Soul 7

Artist: Milton Davis

Title: Headed for the Disco

Label: Soul 7

Catalogue #: SOUL7047

Though allegedly a Texas native, Milton Davis first recorded in Los Angeles in 1967 as a member of The Four Tempos. When that act split, he trekked up the coast in stages, eventually settling in Portland. Here he secured the lead vocal role for local scene heroes, Slickaphonic. Though a full album of their own was taped, another reel of material was cut centred on Milton as a solo artist. Neither set of tracks saw release in their day, but from the latter collection we've pulled a bona fide 1977 disco-soul smasher and a mid tempo flipside with a sheen that belies its depth.

*First time ever on 7" 45, dinked centre hole with picture sleeve, 500 numbered copies only.

It's available exclusively on our website this week, and will be in the shops from the weekend
