Soul Dancing- An American Institution! Music Lover: from BRONX, NY US -- January, 15, 2015

What a magnificent CD this is! Where would dance music be today without the contributions of the "twist, hully gully, watusi, jerk,Madison and the fly! I cannot forget the legendary artists who put these dances into our american culture like Chubby Checker, James Brown, Dee Dee Sharp, Marvin Gaye and so many more! I'm truly speechless with this CD for I let a friend of mine borrow this CD and now he doesn't want to give it back! More dances include the " Bacon fat" the "greasy chicken" and the "mashed potatoes"! Better stop now for I'm getting hungry so buy this CD now while dinnertime awaits me!
