Now we know where Michael Jackson got his moves from. The move at 1.57-2.05 was definately on MJ's Smooth Criminal video. Love the Afro's.

@rochstan123 JD is the unsung hero in dance. He was doing these moves on Soul Train before meeting Michael Jackson and believe it or not, Jeff was not the first ever to do the moonwalk. I saw an old footage of a black man doing it in the 1930s.

Wow!!! back when we had real grooves and the Music was "Pure" oh well at least I was around to enjoy those days in the 70s...I cannot Imagine what it would have been like for me not to have this era of Music in my younger days...as well as the Music of the 60s and 80s as well...the 90s were ok as well...oh the memories.

@24lisabeth - After playing 2 of these songs, several people will come to the DJ booth to complain about playing "old songs"... it happens every time. Remember anybody in the room that is younger than say... 30, were just babies and sometimes don't remember this good shyt. I'm a mobile DJ and I love all these songs and have all of them, but rarely play them.
