What is
there to say about Archie
Bell & The Drells except, "They're from Houston, Texas, and they
dance as good as they want"? So stated their 1968 debut, "Tighten
Up," and that all but wrote the book on the Drells. Other dance hits followed
including "(There's Gonna Be A) Showdown" and "I Just Can't
Stop Dancing." Later, they signed up with famed label Philadelphia International
and waxed a series of disco-tinted singles, most notably "I Could Dance
All Night." Rhino's Tightening
It Up: The Best Of Archie Bell & The Drells brings all the Drells'
hits under the same roof for the first time.
