Who are you? And what is Revolution 9? Why no mention of the Land of a Thousand Dances or Sam Cooke's Twistin' the Night Away? LockeShocke 13:35, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment

[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Watusi (dance)/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

The Watusi was not and should not be credited to Ray Barretto. The Vibrations made it famous. Other dances by the Vibrations were The Continental and The Slop. Please see your own (brief) description of this group.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "The Jay Hawks" redirects here. For the alternative rock band, see The Jayhawks. The Vibrations were an American soul vocal group from Los Angeles, California, active from the mid-1950s to 1976. Most notable among the group's hit singles were "My Girl Sloopy" (1964) and "Love in Them Thar Hills" (1968). The quintet's members included Don Bradley, Carl Fisher, Dave Govan, James Johnson and Ricky Owens.

The group initially began recording as The Jay Hawks, and had a hit in 1956 with "Stranded in the Jungle" (US #18). After a few lineup changes, the group hit again in 1961 with the song "The Watusi" (US #25); concurrently, they had a hit under the name The Marathons with "Peanut Butter" (#20).[1

What is the dance?

[edit]

As far as I can tell this article contains no information about the dance itself—i.e., if someone is doing the Watusi, what are they actually doing? Surely information on that must exist in some source. AJD (talk) 05:12, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
