THE DAYLIGHTERS - OH MOM (TEACH ME HOW TO UNCLE WILLIE)


(originally posted 2/17/11)

I've been on a serious hard driving r&b kick lately, as evidenced by yesterday and today's posts.

This is one WILD record, from a group known more for smooth vocal harmonies. The Uncle Willie dance was a massive sensation in Chicago during '63-'64, and spawned many records related to the craze. Out of all of them that I've heard (I have a handful of them) this is by far my favorite and it's so much more EXTREME than the other Uncle Willie records! The Uncle Willie itself is a cool, simple step that involves shuffling the feet heel to toe; dancing the Uncle Willie to this song is sure to be a great way to lose weight and have fun in the process.

from 1964...
