Darlene Love and the Blossoms doing that fabulous background singing
I like this guy! Very Chubby Checkeresque in presentation, style and song.
mrob75: I looked up Round Robin in Joel Whitburn's '55-'82 compilation and found only one song that made the top 100 for him, namely this one. At that, it peaked at only #61. A shame! Really great sound, and I bet I saw at least one of his appearances with Dick Clark but didn't hear the song nearly enough to realize how good it is. Recently caught it on a lost oldies radio show and Googled it to find out the title and artist.
One I totally forgot about from 64, now it's stuck in my head.
I heard the song and thought it sounded like Chubby Checker. Then I see the video, and here's the guy looking like Mr. Checker doing the Twist! Maybe Mr. Clark was thinking, "Well. Chubby's records aren't selling so well anymore--maybe this will be the next worldwide sensation." Alas, it was not to be. Couldn't stop the Beatles!
That's the "Slauson Shuffle."
Love this! What is the name of the dance mentioned here? I'd never heard of it! Seems that this song really didn't catch on fire as Dick mentioned earlier...Maybe it was a regional hit (?) Anyone know?
Not sure but I think it started in california. It was a really popular dance in so. California.
The Slauson!
One of many tunes made obscure by the advent of the Beatles/British Invasion.
Round robin look like African American version of Roy Clark
@Jamarkus Hall The Same Thing
@Jamarkus Hall - I'm saying black and african-american is the same thing.
👁️👁️Eu dançava esta música em cima do pé do meu paizinho🌬️❤️
Was Round Robin's name Robin Lloyd,and is he still alive ?(That fat boy could sing ,and should have been much more popular !!!)
still alive :) i met him yesterday!
I couldn't find him on Wiki. What ever became of Round Robin?
Texas
A great song, but the Slauson "kick-the-right-foot-on-four" looked kind of strange. Maybe it needed to be done, as Round Robin said of the dance's origin, on skates.
Does anyone know if he's still alive?
He's alive & kickn'
From a distance he looks a little like Chubby.
