As a high school kid in Culver City, CA, I got to meet my favorite Soul Train dancer (see: Joe Tex song "I Gotcha"). One of the best days of my life!

This how we knew a song was viral back in the day - It was on Soul Train, Solid Gold Dancer or Dick Clark.

I miss the girls wearing those sharp suits with the short pants tucked into Gaucho boots. That was a sexy, sexy look.
