Good video about the first Dynasty of Rock and Roll. He was the first to overjoy all the crowd and to teach all the world how to rock and roll. His name is engraved in our memories.
So it is not surprising that there is a sharp dividing line between before and after "Rock Around the Clock",the song that started the rock revolution!.
@curvy71 No, we "old people" were teenagers (barely) when "Rock Around the Clock" came out and we definitely did not talk like that. That is pure, homogenized, 100% Hollywood.
@Halo101st So is a " RAPPERS DELIGHT " Even Jelly Belly nd 6 Pachas admitted to be'N fake, on Music Televisions MTV's RAP WARS, Yo? The Jewelry, that's REAL, pretty. But I'd rather have NAZI gold, Real.
This dancing is just a modern type Jitter Bug..if you listen closely you will also here big band boogie style jazz in Rock and Roll here. So much of Modern Rock has lost this. Since they started hard rock to me is not dance music..just a bunch of guys on the stage screaming words cause their music is so loud you could not hear them sing other wise.!!!!!!!!
Yes but whites learned well by practice and more practice now they can bust some moves they may not be as natral as the A Americans but by praticing they are pritty good i like bill and always like to see how he use that guitar as a prop that is something we don't see today much good voice from him thanks.
I've always liked Bill Haley and his Comets, his music makes me wanna dance no doubt bout it. But lets remember one thing here for a moment, the originators were Blacks they were the real deal since the turn of the 1900's. Blacks have this magic touch for music.
@MrYankeeManiac The movie is "Rock Around the Clock." I bought it on Amazon.com as part of a two DVD set with "Don't Knock the Rock." It wouldn't let me post a link...
@lindyhop411 Well i'm getting on in my yrs now,but when we,meaning myself 7 friends were into Rock n Roll,we tended to mix a bit of both Jive with "Lindy Hop2 it did work well.lol.saying that we were all young at the time,lol.but had a ball doing it, ;=],maybe not as good as these Guys,but was fun .
@richardcwood1 Sir...you are correct .....Im in my 50's and kids of my day were not fat....or very few of them......we didnt sit in front of a computer and play games ..we would go outside and play football, baseball or basketball.....we lived to play outside....our parents had to fight to keep us inside......kids today just sit and watch tv and video games........so sad
For a long while I thought my daughter was fatally infected with 'Top 40' bubblegum, but she admitted to me one day she really likes Bill Haley's music, so I can almost forgive what she listens to 90% of the time.
They're slaughterin' cattle! Yes indeedy! This was my first Rock song ever, I danced to it when I was one years old! I still love rock 'n roll, to this very day! I have gone from the Founder, Bill Haley, to Elvis, To Chuck, to Buddy, to The Beatles, to The Who, to Hendrix, to Bowie, to the Ramones, to Nirvana, to Bad Religion, and so on, and so forth. I have been alive about as long as Rock 'n Roll, and I will always love it with all my heart! I promise! Crazy, man, crazy!
There are some of us who still do this... not many, but there are some. I know more than most old folks I've met about vintage swing dance.... And I'm only 24.

They might not have realized it but they were experiencing America at its best--they had tail-finned chrome covered cars, a booming economy and could tell the rest of the world to screw itself! They're all nicely dressed and probably have good jobs and are living comfortably in retirement in their 70's today! Today's young people will never have it so good!
Why do we live in this hip-hop and rap times ?! I'm 14 years old, and i'd die to get to a time where they dance'd like this and everywhere u go, u hear rockabilly/rock'n'roll! Long live Rock'n'roll!

@heyitsmoi Most of those tight pencil skirts had "kick pleats" in the front and back below the knee to allow them to flare out for climbing stairs or up that high first step into a trolley car.
congratutacion for bill haley this man play this adventure call rock rock rock congratulations from mexico live rock this is music i love rock i love rock this is music in my funeral
I could do that move 15 years ago (and so could Marcus Koch from Germany) and u need VERY flexible legs...believe me. Then you get older and less flexible and "memories are made of this". The dancers did not drink at all..just like today. That is the reason why we are not populair around places as we only drink water...and you cannot make both ends meet that way. I still love dancing.
Yeah the dancers were all sober doing this kind of dancing--but if they were really wild they might go out for a few beers later and then maybe some making out (kissing) and maybe squeezing a boob if they were lucky. Only the loosest trashiest girls would actually fuq. They wanted marriage if you can believe it! It was a more innocent time--I really miss it.
@harmageden All that dancing, babe. Awesome exercise! When my husband and I took swing dance lessons for an entire summer we both lost over 20 lbs each.
Franny Beecher the guitar player is 88 and still going strong. He is the living Les Paul of guitar playing . This is one happy group of people. Hopefully it will be revived. People do not know what they are missing.
I think the guy on the right in the opening scenes was on a couple of old Andy Griffith shows. He played the band leader of the band called "Freddie Fleet and his band with a Beat". Also on the show was a very young guitar player who later played the sheriff on "Duke's of Hazzard".
I'm 62 years old and i did this and I can do about 1 hr. of it now. Good for you- you don't see any fat on that dance floor. FUN FUN FUN and those were real girls back in those days. the kids of today cant do it. This is the best way to get in shape FUN FUN FUN . good luck. AND yes I'm aold man.
@kennethrobinson123 My late Aunties and Uncles were champion dancers during the 50's. One of my Uncles could do that move in 3.03. Its a really difficult move.Looking at this clip and other archival footage and photos, I see that they certainly had something over and above whats on offer today. Even with exposed flesh - my aunties looked wholesome but sexy, a far cry from the sleaze we see today!

Franny Beecher the guitar player is 88 and still going strong. He is the living Les Paul of guitar playing . This is one happy group of people. Hopefully it will be revived. People do not know what they are missing.

I think the guy on the right in the opening scenes was on a couple of old Andy Griffith shows. He played the band leader of the band called "Freddie Fleet and his band with a Beat". Also on the show was a very young guitar player who later played the sheriff on "Duke's of Hazzard".

Different eras and different dances. They were doing jitterbug in the 40's and jive or the "rock n' roll" in the mid 50's.

@kennethrobinson123 My late Aunties and Uncles were champion dancers during the 50's. One of my Uncles could do that move in 3.03. Its a really difficult move.Looking at this clip and other archival footage and photos, I see that they certainly had something over and above whats on offer today. Even with exposed flesh - my aunties looked wholesome but sexy, a far cry from the sleaze we see today!

@Rosina57NZ It's not a difficult move. It's just difficult to make it look good, but anyone can do it, and it normally doesn't look good.
