'''''Dance Party''''' is a 1965 album released by [[United States|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 follow-up smash, "[[Nowhere to Run]]", the hit, "[[Wild One (song)|Wild One]]", and the famous b-side, "Motoring". The album was mostly produced by [[William "Mickey" Stevenson]] with several nods from [[Holland-Dozier-Holland]].
