"Disco King" was the first single by Australian rock group Spencer Tracy, released on Embryo Records in January, 2003.

"Disco King" earned a lot of airplay for Spencer Tracy, with the Triple M network adding "Disco King" to official rotation in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, NOVA Sydney & Melbourne running the track in the high rotation Buzz bin for two consecutive weeks and NOVA 937 in Perth giving solid airplay over a six-week period. The video clip to Disco King also received rotation on Channel V, MTV and Rage. The song created interest in the band from Interscope Records in the USA.

"Cathy Hendrix in my office listens to triple j on the net all of the time and we just loved that song "Disco King". A musician friend saw Spencer Tracy playing a show in Melbourne and sent us a copy of their CD. When we put it on we were blown away -we just couldn't turn it off for a whole week." - Mike Dixon – USA manager (Ron Sexsmith)

"Disco King" was nominated for 'Most Popular Local Original Single or EP' at the 2003 Western Australian Music Industry Awards.
