Joe Namath dancing?

@Abraxazz45 Yep, that's Joe dancing with Ann Margaret. The Wayne Cochran cut is from the movie "C.C. and Company" they starred in. A bad biker movie I actually paid to see.

Both these guys and myself, Dennis Wheeler, had the same Mgr, Bobby Smith, during the very early start of our careers. We did Gigs together a few times. One other guy was also apart of this early team of Macon Ga Music scene and that was Bobby Cash and The Night Flyers" What a show we had At Lake Side Park. Of coarse, Alan & Phil Walden became Otis' Mgrs and had the first hit record. Wayne Cochran next. I ended up on King Records & United Artists. Bobby Cash on King. We had a few top 100 hits.

Thanks by proxy from two friends from my past. As you know Otis is no longer with us ( RIP Big O ) and Wayne is the Pastor of his church in Maimi . This video put together two great talents as well as two great friends. BTW Wayne is from Thomaston Ga.
