I was watching a Soul Train episode from 1972 and was able to see that the dance that Rerun did on the show was a popular dance in the 70's because it seemed like 80% of the people at Soul Train was doing that dance. And this was 4 years before What's Happening premeired on ABC. I always thought that dance was something created by Fred Berry. Never knew that dance was someting that everyone was doing on Soul Train.

I see you are from Philly too.What part?I have some old shows maybe we can trade?

I love the Rerun dance! I always try to do it.

I'm from West Philly. Sure I would be interested in trading, email me at solomond@webtv.net


I have 2 eps of Soul Train

One from 1971 with Mihael Jackson doing the Robot Dance

The other from 1975 with Ralph Carter from Good Times

...However after a while, I kinda got tired of Rerun doing those same robot-like moves. I'll give him this: For a guyhis size, he was very agile.

OMG Solomon - I still remember seeing those episodes on their first run!

Yah - The Robot was HUGE in the 70s - it actually came from good old Michael Jackson and caught on fast. Even us white chicks were doing it (although I'll bet I looked like an idiot - but thought I was major cool)! :cool: :lol:

I was at a Christmas dance a couple of years ago and busted the move - the singer of the band had me come up on stage and get everyone doing it - it was a riot!

But weird that the moment I read those two eps it all came back to me! :crazy:

Rerun was doing the Robot Dance, he was doing a dance called-"POP LOCKING"

I was glad I got to finally see it because I never seen anyone do the Robot Dance like Michael Jackson. When I saw people do the Robot they stood in one spot. Michael on the otherhand, was WALKING and Moving his head like a Robot. Classic Stuff

Yeah, espcially on "Dancing Machine".
