NEW DOUBLE LP
New sealed copy. 2026 expanded 40th anniversary edition remastered reissue on gold metallic marbled vinyl. Gatefold jacket. Includes the original album plus bonus tracks.
Music That You Can Dance To is the fourteenth studio album by American duo Sparks, released in 1986 through MCA Records in the United States. The album returned more strongly to the dance music direction the band had explored on No. 1 in Heaven, with synthesizers and sequencers forming the core of the arrangements.
The record combines synth pop, dance music, and Hi NRG with distorted bass guitar and more abrasive electronic textures. Songs such as "Music That You Can Dance To," "Fingertips," and "The Scene" emphasize the dance side of the album, while "Shopping Mall of Love," "Let's Get Funky," and "Rosebud" move toward more experimental and pop focused arrangements.
The album was the final Sparks studio release to feature guitarist Bob Haag, bassist Leslie Bohem, and drummer David Kendrick as the Mael brothers' regular backing band. The title track became Sparks' highest charting single on the Billboard Dance Club chart, reaching number six.
