King of Dance Music Volume 9 offers a broad selection whose ballroom material is particularly easy to identify from the supplied labels. Party Quicktime, Penguin Quickstep and Quickstep To The Stars are Quickstep, while Quick And Easy is separately designated Quick Foxtrot. Pearls and Diamonds, Prince Charming and Puppy Foxtrot provide Foxtrot choices without collapsing these neighbouring categories into one label.
The programme also distinguishes English Waltz from Viennese Waltz. Paris Is Magic belongs to the former category; Pink Champagne and Princess Waltz belong to the latter. Oriental Princess supplies Tango, with Orfeo Samba, Oriental Cha Cha, Pisces Rumba and Party Jive adding Latin and Jive material. Oriental Dance introduces Disco, extending the collection beyond an exclusively ballroom practice selection.
Ritmo Del Amor carries the additional note Tenor Sax or Euphonium Solo, a useful musical distinction for customers browsing the Rumba selections. The album then closes with five Rock ’n’ Roll titles: Rock Forever, Rock Me Baby, Rock’n Roll King, Rock You Blues Away and Rock Star. This closing group gives Volume 9 a different emphasis from a compilation limited to Standard and Latin dance music.
Across twenty-two tracks, the individual dance labels help listeners choose between neighbouring categories such as Foxtrot and Quick Foxtrot, or English and Viennese Waltz. Dancers can browse by the rhythm they are practising, while instrumental-music listeners can explore the contrast between the ballroom selections and the more energetic closing repertoire.
