The Greatest SoulFunk & Disco 12 Inch Singles Of The 70s & 80s (4CD)

Like many crucial inventions, the 12 single was born out of necessity. Although its widely seen as an innovation born in the disco era to help DJs keep people dancing by stretching out songs much further than the conventional three-minute mark defined by the 7 single, the very first 12 single appeared in 1970. It was an innovation that helped stoke the flames of the Disco Inferno and introduced the concept of instrumental breakdowns or breaks. Initially, 12 pressings targeted DJs and were only used for promotional purposes but such was their desirability that it wasnt long before record companies made them commercially available; first one sold to the public was Double Exposures Ten Percent in 1976. Success opened the floodgates and from that moment, the 12 single became the format that defined Discos glory years.
