"The Philosopher of Soul" hit the top of the charts and and had us hypnotized and soul mesmo-ized. Producer Don Davis wrote the song about a dancer he saw in Spain. 'Disco Lady' was Johnnie Taylor's first single with Columbia Records after Stax went bankrupt. The song features Parliament-Funkadelic bassist Bootsy Collins, keyboardist Bernie Worrell and guitarist Glen Goins, as well as Dawn's Telma Hopkins. It spent four weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and six weeks on the Billboard R&B chart in the U.S. It was also the first single to be certified platinum by the RIAA and the first number one song with the word "disco" in the title.
