Thank goodness January's over with - it's been a manic month. I know we haven't seen the back of winter yet but at least the mornings/evenings are getting brighter...so... today's track is another Top of the Pops gem...just fancied it...
Break Machine - Street Dance...
Released in 1983 - this video is of their TOTP performance in 1984 ... they all look like they're having a blast in this video...doing their break-dancing thing - go on then!
I remember this being quite a breakthrough on the emerging Hip Hop scene at the time and absolutely loved it - just sounded so different, the energy is contagious-man and the track just flows and carries you along! I've bopped around to this quite a bit in my youth - never managed (or even attempted) to spin on my back though ...
Any old break dancers out there remember this?

OH. MY. GOD. This really brought back memories - I was 12 or 13 when this came out. Just off to pull the vinyl out and spin on my head! Fab! :o).
ReplyDeleteYep it really gets the juices flowing doesn't it - good luck with that head-spin! :)
DeleteHaha I remember this! I have a few pairs of those sunnies knocking about..
ReplyDeleteIt's great isn't it? I can just see you in those sunnies Sam! :)

DeleteOh yes, we can definitely dance to this in my living room Jenny! Although I'll give the break dance bit a miss, more worried these days I might break a hip ha ha!
ReplyDeleteYep - I'd end up pulling a muscle too no doubt Kay! x
