"Dance Party" was a 1965 album released by American Motown and soul girl group Martha and the Vandellas on the Gordy (Motown) label. The album was the group's third and much like The Miracles' Mickey's Monkey album mainly consisted of dance tunes. Among the singles featured on the album include their 1964 landmark single, "Dancing in the Street", their massive follow-up smash, "Nowhere to Run", the hit, "Wild One", a remake of their earlier song, "There He Is (At My Door)" that has since become a favorite for Motown fans, and the famous b-side, "Motoring". The album was mostly produced by William "Mickey" Stevenson with several nods from Holland-Dozier-Holland.
