Biography

The Philadelphia group Double Exposure enjoyed their greatest success during the disco era, but their story begins in the mid 1960s when Leonard Davis (nicknamed Butch), Joe Harris, Charles Whittington, and Jimmy Williams formed the soul group United Image. They recorded some sides for Stax, but by the mid- 70s they found themselves on Salsoul. The released the soul-steeped disco album Ten Percent in 1976 and it went top 40 on the R&B album chart. However, its biggest impact was in the clubs where the title track became a number 2 dance when a 12-inch remix was released. From the same album,“Everyman (Has to Carry His Own Weight)” and “My Love Is Free” climbed to number 8 and 15 respectively on the dance chart. Their next two albums, 1978’s Fourplay and 1979’s Locker Room failed to do as well as their Salsoul debut, but the latter contained another top 40 dance hit, “I Got the Hots for Ya”. The foursome disbanded early in the eighties, but came back together for one last album, Always, in 2002. They recorded material at different points during that decade but did not return to the charts.
