As the title suggests the compilation mainly focuses on the dancefloor friendly part of Khan's repertoire from the late 1970s to mid 1980s, including classic single cuts like "I'm Every Woman", "Fate", "Eye To Eye", "Clouds", "I Feel for You" as well as album tracks like "Pass It On (Sure Thing)" and "A Woman in a Man's World".

Dance Classics is however mainly notable for the inclusion of two rarities: the original 12" Long Vocal Mix and 12" Instrumental Version of the 1982 hit single "Tearin' It Up", both mixed by legendary D.J. Larry Levan and as yet only available on this compilation. The original version of "Tearin' It Up" appears on the eponymous Chaka Khan album which incidentally also remains unreleased on CD in both the United States and Europe.

The Dance Classics of Chaka Khan set also features both the original 1978 version and the 1989 remix of "I'm Every Woman" (from Life is a Dance - The Remix Project) and concludes with the 1984 ballad "Through the Fire"
