OMG Ms davis in that black outfit. love the way she showed the youngster how to shake it up at 0:50 - 1:05.

This is when people really got down and danced their asses off!!!!

[joceeco]

Cheryl Lynn sings this right?

[uzipolo]

yes she does sing this this was produceds by ray parker jr.--says uzipolo king of decatur

[MsTexas73]

It looked like it was either Ralph Witherspoon or Lil Joe Chisolm....both of whom she was seen dancing with regularly...but moreso with Ralph.

[MsTexas73]

*takes look a video again...shakes head*...no that's not Ralph...Ralph was her partner in the early 70s...forget the dude she danced with in the late 70s...But Thelma always lucked out...she had GREAT partners that complimented her smooth and classic moves.

[MsTexas73]

Agrees with Cornelius...She hit her stride in the 70s...esp the MID 70s...YES the West Coast Swing..she would KILL IT!...however she brought sooo much cool and lcass in the 80s...LURVED to see her move.

[uzipolo]

wow i didnt know that was her in the 80's..wow she was cool

[birdatplay]

she's a legend.

Thanks for the tribute to one of my favorite ST dancers. Thelma projects such beauty and class. I would have love have seen more from the 70's when she, with her signature cropped fro and flower, shone the best.

BTW, who is the male dancer (her partner) at 1:11? He is another favorite -- always very expressive -- but I've never known his name>

[nickfreshalive]

@bombast718 thelma's dance partner is Darryl. danced on the show from 74 up until about '84.

[NoWayzSafe]

Thelma was another fine gem too. She could really move.

[lyslinger]

Thelma was 1 of the original st members from the 70s. she always looked pretty with a great attitude.
