I found these clips purely by accident, but I am glad to see them. I love the fact that the dancers look like young ladies and gentlemen. I love the way they are dressed. I would be interested in seeing more episodes/clips of this show for sure. THANKS for posting.
@Filmdude0 Sorry to cut in on the dialogue, but they were more likely more hip than you take them for, I mean, you're 36 years old....YOU WEREN'T ALIVE IN THE 1960S.
@Khultan Sure they were hip....but I was responding to sombody who stated that they look so conservative....they were hip but they were not hip in the sense of flower power, taking drugs, letting their hair grow etc...that was hip too back then...But the kids in the vido are not that age......They want to look pretty yet and not going against establishment. :) I like it though :)
just can not see nothing but carolina shag with this song, apparently in Ohio the shag just had not blown inward. What a shame! OK Ohio, it's 2010, the Shag is still around, what happen to your 'horse'?
@tumsabai1 But it says that the song is from 1970. So, either you're totally wrong or the information I got is wrong. But this vid looks like a 60s, late 60s.
These TV programs should have continued to be aired forever twice a week with young people dancing so well dressed. And it should be required for every young person to be dancing on these shows, like work, study, and athletics, at least once a month.
Yes, this is the best of Carolina beach music! They're doing "the horse" because they're probably northerners but if you go to Myrtle Beach TODAY they'll be shagging to this song. Love the legendary Tams!
At the same time these muppets were dancing like this, the skins the uk were having a real dance to this music, and all those pretty pretty girls would have something else to dance on.. :o)
Aw, knock if off, Carbonlarge, I don't understand, you're probably not even from that era. I'm sure there are people in the U.K. having a great time in that period but also this is the 60s and the rise of imbeciles like Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard M. Nixon who would ruin the lives of many in an unnecessary war. So, cool it.....
@carbonlarge It's really strange how you go on with the blah blah when you say 'the skins, the UK were having a real dance to this music'. Sure, alot of the dances from the US were copied by the Brits and the rest of the world, and quite badly. But then another issue is your age. You're 56 years old. You were 13 in 1968. I wouldn't credit on that.
@carbonlarge "At the same time these muppets were dancing like this, the skins the uk were having a real dance to this music"
Please! Brits were just doing very bad imitations of the dances that the likes of Ike & Tina Turner Revue, James Brown, Jackie Wilson, Major Lance, Sam & Dave, Tempts, Joe Tex, etc., and others did when they toured the UK! I've seen your northern soul dancing, not at all in sync with the music.
Del Curtis couldn't possibly have been from Steubenville or Weirton -- not with that Jersey accent of his. Seeing these old clips bring back floods of memories. (Any from the Stan Scott days??)
When you're young and breaking into radio/TV broadcasting, ya gotta start someplace small. So I suppose Del started in the metropolis of Steubenville OH instead of NYC or Philly.
I am in love with the girl in the yellow dress smiling at the end of the video. She was adorable. I was about 7 years old then. Please bring this time back. Rene in New Orleans, La
I grew up near Pittsburgh,and fondly recall watching shows like Teen Time,Dance Party(with Clark Race),and Come Alive(with first Chuck Brinkman and then Terry Lee).Better music. Better tv. Better days. These clips are great MosesTKrikey!

These are the most conservative kids I've ever seen on a sixties show.

@powergirl901 That's because they are so young yet.....They are like 15 I assume.....and too young to be freaked out already.
