WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
CBS weigh in with two more all-mixed albums, both lumbered with poor material dragging down the hits. Greg Wilson’s ‘Dance Mix — Dance Hits Vol. III‘ (DM3) is forever clashing vocal on vocal and offsets some neat tricks with surprising clumsiness too
Greg Wilson evidently under-ran his given timing on ‘Dance Mix — Dance Hits III‘, so someone else just tacked on the last track each side
