Willie Mitchell • It's Dance Time
Review by Kurt Edwards
It's Dance Time begins with an introductory run-through of the days popular steps, a brief warm-up for the listener. From there, Willie Mitchell delivers his usual solid set of instrumentals. While the album doesn't quite match up to Mitchell's best album, That Driving Beat, it does have plenty of highlights, including the swaggering "Buster Browne" and "Shake"-styled "When My Dreamboat Comes Home," complete with a lively fuzz-guitar and nice drum breaks. As with most Mitchell albums, most of the songs are over in two minutes' time, quickly moving on to the next dance craze, and the tracks include many tasteful cover versions. Those on It's Dance Time include "Twine Time," "Fever," and a bluesy "Since I Met You Baby."

Reseña de Kurt Edwards
It's Dance Time comienza con una introducción a los pasos populares del día, un breve calentamiento para el oyente. A partir de ahí, Willie Mitchell entrega su habitual y sólido conjunto de instrumentos. Aunque el álbum no se ajusta al mejor álbum de Mitchell, That Driving Beat, tiene muchos puntos destacados, incluyendo el fanfarrón "Buster Browne" y el "Shake", "When My Dreamboat Comes Home", junto con una guitarra de pelusa viva y bonitos redobles de tambor. Como en la mayoría de los álbumes de Mitchell, la mayoría de las canciones terminan en dos minutos, pasando rápidamente a la siguiente locura de baile, y los temas incluyen muchas versiones de buen gusto. Las de It's Dance Time incluyen "Twine Time", "Fever", y un bluesy "Since I Met You Baby".
