"Martha's calling out allll around the world again for us to Party with her and The Vandellas. This Dance oriented Double cd aptly entitled "DANCE PARTY/WATCHOUT " showcases the groups output from 1964 to 1966. Despite being upstaged by the meteoric rise of The Supremes,this group still managed to hold thier own with timeless classics like DANCING IN THE STREET, JIMMY MACK , IM READY FOR LOVE and NOWHERE TO RUN.In my opinion, its the lesser known ablum trax that make this compilation worth the effort. THIRD FINGER/LEFT HAND was the flip side of READY FOR LOVE yet it's somewhat of a cult classic today .Two Smokey Robinson penned tunes are noteworthy as well : The cleverly worded NO MORE TEARSTAINED MAKE UP (the original and a bonus alternate version are included) and KEEP IT UP are just a few of the understated treasures here.Well, I dont know about you , but I'm Ready for a Boxset on The Vandellas (similar to the one done on The Supremes)! Even better would be a Boxset of previously unreleasded Vandellas (lord knows they have a TON of material in the can)
One day ...for now , this compilation will suffice :)"
GO, MARTHA!

"DANCE PARTY is a fun album, bolstered by the hits DANCING IN THE STREET and the awesome NOWHERE TO RUN. MOBILE LIL THE DANCING WITCH is pretty neat, but the lyrics aren't always easy to understand. The title track is also catchy.WATCHOUT! is my favorite Vandellas' album. It includes I'M READY FOR LOVE and my favorite Vandellas' single, JIMMY MACK. Outstanding is Smokey's NO MORE TEARSTAINED MAKE UP...wow, superior Motown! Also noteworthy are ONE WAY OUT and HAPPINESS IS GUARANTEED. Martha and the girls had a nice cover with this album too!This 2-for-1 is a must for all Motown and/or Martha fans."
