Just been watching, the guy Jackson ripped off, with the multi million pound hype machine that backed him. He was Jeffrey Daniel, of Shalamar, (a Back up dancer) he perfected the modern version, I being an old cooont remember it. It wasriginally performed by Cab Calloway In 1932, and many others (various versions) since, but Daniels version stands out for me. If you are impatient skip the first 2 minutes (not recommended) it's sublime.

A lot of stuff is a rip off. I didn't know until tonight that Soft Cell's Tainted Love was 10 years old at least when they recorded it.

Hi Kenny, I have to admit that M.A, made it something quite different with his interpretation, which could probably be a hit in succeeding decades, which I doubt that the Gloria Jones version would have achieved , What do you think, value your opinion BTW.

This will run and run, how do you manage to piss so many people off who essentially agree with you. I didn't know what I did to piss you off Except not give my opinion of what do you think of this? Here you are: Shalamar not my type of music. What do I reckon of Michael Jackson? Didn't like his music before he began shagging kids and bloeing bubbles. Watched him 'perform' one night as one of our nieces, who was here for the weekend, thought he was great. I turned it off when he started singing while grabbing his nuts. Anybody who 'dances' like that has a small knob and has no chance of getting a decent shag, unless he's a multi-millionnaire of course. I clicked on the link you put up at 00:29 It concerned football, and was switched off within 2 seconds. Happy now, you drunken bastard? |

Both Calloway and Daniel were latecomers to the Moonwalk. It was, of course, invented by Wilfred Hyde-White during a 6th form concert at Marlborough College in around 1919.
Wilfred and his good pal Robert Morley were infamous for doing the Moonwalk in the Members Enclosure at Royal Ascot when they had landed one of their many big gambles. I trust this matter is now closed. |
