It's Time For is the sixth album by American rock band Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers, released in 1986 by Rough Trade Records in the UK and Upside Records in the US.

Reception

Jason Ankeny of AllMusic wrote, "Taking full advantage of Richman's sax-blowing acumen, the record sports a wistful early rock & roll feel: "Let's Take a Trip" and "Yo Jo Jo" are energetic rave-ups, "This Love of Mine" is a sweet doo wop ballad, and "It's You" is a joyous romantic romp. The highlight is "Corner Store," an impassioned plea against modernization."^[1]
