Wow 🔥🔥🔥 I wanna see the rest of it

@starchildarryl Hey, James "Cricket" Colter, who always kicked off the solos, was in that 1st show we did at BAM. Ron Wood aka Zen 1 had become a member after.

Just to correct, this is not our first appearance at BAM.

@starchildarryl I believe '95 was our first Dance Africa BAM show and this video shows our '96 Dance Africa BAM show.

Les! Thanks for putting dates to it. I met Rennie in '85 at a flipping folk dance camp in Mass, then over 10 years later happened to go down to the BAM with a W. African drumming group I was playing with in Maine. And there was Rennie again. Blowing my frigging mind. So I moved to Philly. Y'all changed my life.

I remember this piece from Dance Africa in Minneapolis, MN. Circle of Choice Dance Ensemble danced with you guys as a transition right before it. I loved it then, still love it! Awesome!

[@dashydash33]

What's the name of this piece? I'm doing a research project on Rennie Harris and I want to get as much as I can about him.

[@Cya_bia]

What is this dance called and where can I find the rest of the show? Mostly the title of the dance I appreciate it!

[@starchildarryl]

Can someone tell me what this music is?

[@mroepius5033]

[@duckbuttbaby]

WOW! Rennie doing Asphalt. The goood old days.

[@lauratehennepe8339]

Right!?? I moved to Philly because I saw this crew at BAM in must have been '96... and realized Rennie was the same guy I'd met when I was 18 and he was 21 teaching hip hop at a folk dance camp in Mass (with Shalamar).
