Line dancing in the '20s. Country singers thought they invented it! Very nice video. Thanks for posting it.

 

[rue]

You're welcome. I'm just always amazed how drastic the change was from the teens to the twenties. Their grandmothers must have been shocked! lol

 

[scottyrocks]

Yes, nice video. I suppose that's the equivalent of today's beautiful people TV shows. The squalor of every day life was much less attractive, especially back then.

'Twas the 19th Amendment that done it.

I'm surprised Aaron1912 isn't a member here. I know him from another forum. His videos are the closest thing to a time machine.

 

[rue]

I'm surprised too. I really enjoy all his videos

I also know Aaron, same as VCB, from another forum. And like VCB, I'm surprised he isn't a member here.

VCB, perhaps we should kidnap him and bring him over here. You get the sack and I'll find the blackjack...

Would anyone happen to know the title/Orchestra for the very last song in the first video?

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Just think how the prior generation must've been pulling their hair out as the Roaring 20's began!

Ohhh.... V.C. .......

I know... almost like the generation prior to the hippies, but worse I think.

Obviously police officers weren't so easily offended by recklsess drivers back then. The guy nearly crashes into the passing car at 0:46...

BTW: I asked this before in some other thread but didn't get an answer: what is the name of the second tune that starts at 0:16? I love it!

That second tune is Persian Rug by the San Francisco Starlight Orchestra.

Yes! You're the man! Thank you so much.
And now that you mention it...I actually have a version of it played by Robert Crumb & The Cheap Suit Serenaders...

Someone gave me the mixing desk/soundboard feed from a Cheap Suit Serenaders' gig from 1984 and I have this track live!

Also from the movie Zelig
Mae Questel -- Chameleon Days
Mae Questel was the voice of Betty Boop and Olive Oyl in the Max Fleischer cartoons. I get a big laugh out of the faux Victor label. The number 694-U sticks out like a sore thumb lol
