Recording under their own names too, they wrote some dance/disco tracks in the later 1970's which included the classic "Found a cure". "Over and over" is a typically strong Ashford & Simpson track and was covered by Sylvester. And no mention of them would be complete with recalling their 1984 super-classic "Solid". For the hustlers amongst you, try "Tried, tested and found true" and if you like a boogie bassline listen to "Don't cost you nothing".
"One more try", "Tried, tested and found true" and "Over and over" were also released as two early 12" singles and are all now rare collector's items. There is also a UK-only 12" of disco classic "Bourgie bourgie" (covered by John Davis & the Monster Orchestra and Gladys Knight.
