A Little Bit of This, a Little Bit of That is the only studio album British music producer D Mob, released on FFRR Records in 1989. The album peaked at No. 46 on the UK Albums Chart, No. 72 in Australia, and No. 82 on the Billboard 200 in the US.
British singer and songwriter Cathy Dennis sings vocals for two songs, one of which, "C'mon and Get My Love", became a top 10 hit in the United States, peaking at number 10, and reaching number 15 in the UK.
Critical reception
AllMusic wrote, "Those who consider house music one-dimensional must give a serious listen to D-Mob's unpredictable and appropriately titled A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That." Bill Coleman from Billboard commented, "Coming off three No. 1 club hits, D-Mob finally unleashes its album debut and it grooves. D-Mob brainchild, popular U.K. remixer Dancin' Danny D (aka Danny Poku) lays it out on the line and proves himself a more-than-able producer/songwriter/artist who has got quite a few tricks up his sleeve. Featuring a varied assemblage of performers, A Little Bit tackles a number of styles with ease and personality."
