Check out at 0:56, Darcel tripped a little and recovers quickly enough so that we don't notice. It's the small flaws like that that let you know how well rehearsed these had to be every week.
Why didn't the countdown match up with Billboard at the time. I wanted to ask this question for a long time as Michael jackson was on the top 5 on Billboard almost constantly at this time.
I always wanted to be a Solid Gold dancer-great show, I feel old.
They would have to had paid Billboard magazine royalties to use their official charts on the show, so they (quoting the end of the show) compiled the rankings of hit songs after reviewing standard industry sources. Translation: Our chart won't be accurate and don't care because the dancers are hot. I remember watching this show on Saturday nights for the dancers, then tune into Casey Kasem and American Top 40 on Sundays for the real charts.
Anybody recognize the brunette in the middle at 4:43 to the Rick Springfield song "Affair of the heart" ? I thought at first it was Darcel but it couldn't be after seeing Darcel and this girl in the following routine together. Who is she? Also, who is the brunette at 8:10 of the closing credits?
@bkgtubster the brunette at 4:43 is Jamilah Lucas (from seasons 5 - 8) she was temp replacement in only a handful of shows for Janeen waaaaay back in Season 3.. And the brunette in the closing dance is Lucinda Dickey, she replaced Paula Beyers for a couple of episodes until Gayle Crofoot took over and stayed through the end of season 5.
@lbCharmed1 ...Who is the other black chick, outside of Darcel, dancing in the group with Pam, Debbie, Kahea and Gayle at 4:42-.5:45..I do not remember her being a perm. dancer?
@OldSoul1979 It's Jamilah Lucas. She was a 'fill-in' dancer during season 3 for about 3 or 4 episodes and then returned in season 5 and went on to finish the shows run.
LOL..."the latest hit by Oxo..." the only song by Oxo. I haven't heard it since it was on the radio 27 years ago. IIRC Oxo was really the 70's band Foxy that had the quasi-pornographic song "Get Off," rebranded for the 80's.
This is my ish FOR REAL... makes my dream of being a Solid Gold dancer come alive again... and the tunes?! What the f$#k?! Oxo, Little River Band, Bowie, Hall and Oates?! How stoked would I have been to be Darcel Wynne in toast tights giggin' to "Let's Dance" when it had just come out?! I'm gagging!
