In The Fass Line

FASS BLACK (aka DISCO 9000)-1977-This dated laughable blaxploitation nonsense was made by people who seemed to think there was a future in its phony glitter. It stars an actor named John Poole who plays the title character Fass, a disco and record label owner who tries to be a cross between Don Cornelius, Michael Jackson and Clarence Williams lll. He only promotes his own junk at his disco and keeps 2 guys from NY from promoting their own material. He also has a wife and kid but has girlfriends everywhere. He’s assisted by a little numbskull called Midget (Harold Nicholas). When a guy who works for Fass gets in trouble with loan sharks, Fass’s ex-girlfriend Karen (Jeannie Bell) is killed. He has to take care of the evil white guys though he's just as bad as they are. Matthew “Stymie” Beard has a small role. 

Disco is dead! Mothball this ludicrous time capsule! FASS BLACK and DOLEMITE are actor D'Urville Martin's only directorial efforts.
