“Dance All Night With Me” by Bill Wood and the Woodies is an outstanding track that fuses Tex-Mex with retro-flavoured pop-rock. There’s a hint of Carlos Santana in the lead guitar and a touch of Sir Douglas Quintet in the way the record’s produced and arranged. It’s a beautiful mix of great influences and yet very original.
The bluesy lead vocals are exceptional, and the trumpet is simply put: divine. I truly like the drum pattern, the use of toms … very sixties but a spot-on choice for a number such as this.
"Dance All Night With Me" is a tune and performance that leaves no-one cold. It’ll sound every bit as good from the comfort of your own couch as it would at some smoky, whisky-drenched roadhouse somewhere along the old Route 66.
