[marcuslaughton]

im 49 and was brought up with this stuff, my brother was a dj at the twisted wheel , had a fantastic collection of stuff. by the way this dancing is tame compared to how they used to do it in the 60s!!! i remember my brother attempting to teach me how to do the back drops and spins when i was a kid!!! never mastered it but then again he was a gymnast too . wow now he could dance.

[millerman88HH]

Old Folk! OLD FOLK!!! Listen dude, I'm 47 and I've got more street cred than you'll EVER have! P.S. SOUTH PARK RULES! Family guy Is S**T!

Rufus says - bring it back big style

[PhotoshopBus]

I remember being at Wigan that first week it was played and it was an instant floor filler. One of the lads from Peterborough got an EMI of it. Cant remember what else was on it. But we took it up the Carousel on the tuesday night and everyone freaked.Of course SOMEBODY had a couple of hundred copies and the next week they were all over the place for a fiver.

[footsieevo]

yep thats how its done.lol.all handbag danceing these days.lol

[zantepete1]

Great vid to a classic sound.Brings back memories of the mid seventies when i could dance like that,think i may last about twenty seconds these days.

hmmmm mind you with a little help???? no not red bull i might last a bit longer.

Wirelad, not only your Grandad dances like this. There are thousands of us.

Watch the vids and try to do it yourself, the older ones when we were younger especially. You do the moves, your body will get fitter, you will dance more effectively. Notice that I didn't say better. That's down to how your head translates the music down to your feet.

I hope that one day you can dance as good as Grandad.

But I doubt it.

[robertthrob]

northern soul

[ArthurBough]

Where was this video done? I think i'm the bloke in the muscle vest in the foreground doing the spins, but I normally move my feet more than that, and pop in a few more back-drops and splits.

[gazrobbo53]

Wotcha!!!!!!

[brijsax]

Much maligned tune on the Northern Soul scene now but still a classic nevertheless.

[lauraw0191]

I can remember when I was younger my uncle would just cover the kitchen floor in talc and make me dance across the floor. Im only 20 and I love Northern Soul!

[twoboys1dad]

apart from this song, i have not been into northern soul, but everyone really looks like they are having a good time... x

[dodgydave1313]

[Protechflyer1]

@wirelad1 

;-0 50 "Old folk" ? Don't let your Grandad hear you say that ! I'm 53 got "kid's" of 33 and 30 and kids of 10 and 8, still up to all sorts and definitely not "OLD" by a long way, 50 is middle aged, and good on your Grandad tell him to "Keep the faith" and ask him to teach you the basics like the box step and a bit of jumpstyle (Lambrini style)

[samcooke67]

@wirelad1 hey 50s not old lol... good on ya grandad!

[peepintom08]

[jigwagigiggs]

Id like to see this caper get out of hand and watch them all stylishly punch fuck out of each other, thats if the coordinated dancing owt to go by

[thackerb67]

jumpstyle is actually a hybrid of northern soul put together by by the younger soulies!

[kingmod01]

jumpstyle is for gay neds !!

northern soul is for the mods !

Two completely different styles of dancing ! please dont say things that relate mods with neds because you clearly dont knw what your talking about !!

[thackerb67]

never seen mods in soul bags!secret affair the jam!etc

[kingmod01]

i dont get you? :S

[RenegadeMaster07]

i'd believe you if jumpstyle was actually anything like this.

Some of the moves in this video though are more like a variation of jumpstyle called Tekstyle and also similar to break dancing.

However the dance itself is not, and it only looks like break cos they lean on their hands, and tekstyle because all tekstyle moves are made up and not part of a sequence like proper Jumpstyle. everyone has their own moves.

[kingmod01]

thats how to dance !!

[NaylorPig]

is this wigan casino?

[RitmoNo1]

Just to depress everyone.....my neighbour who is in her mid 30's told me they now do a dance to "The Snake" at her Aerobics Class - and they call it.  Wait for it, wait for it...........The LAMBRINI!!!! (groan) They actually dance like the girls in the advert - why didn't they just do it right?????

[kezzer2]
