Willie Mitchell It's Dance Time

A prominent bandleader, hit instrumental recording artist and prolific producer, Willie Mitchell is credited with creating the now legendary "Hi Sound," its legacy of hit records, and discovering and directing the creative careers of Hi's incredible artist roster which included Al Green, Ann Peebles, Otis Clay and Syl Johnson. Mitchell's mix of jazz sophistication and down-home Southern blues - not to mention his ambition and work ethic - set him apart, and he and his streamlined, stripped-down big band were in demand by black and white audiences alike. 1965's It's Dance Time is a compelling collection of instrumental dance numbers highlighted by "Buster Browne" and "When My Dreamboat Comes Home" and rounded out by stylish covers of "Twine Time," "Fever," and "Since I Met You Baby." It's Dance Time is appearing on vinyl for the first time since its original release, remastered with updated artwork.
