Released in 1974 on 20th Century Records, this LP came from Jamaican-born, London-based singer Carl Douglas. Its lead single emerged at the height of the global kung fu craze, fueled by Bruce Lee films and martial arts cinema, making Douglas one of the few Caribbean artists to top U.S. charts in the disco era. Recorded in London with producer Biddu, the album reflects how immigrant musicians shaped the U.K. dance sound during a decade when cultural fads and diasporic influence intertwined. It remains a snapshot of mid-1970s pop culture at the intersection of film, fashion, and funk.
