My Class Is Finally Beginning to Come Around

But then again, what group of 8-year-olds can resist Rufus Thomas doing "The Funky Chicken?" They also love "The Funky Robot."

I've got a great video of SHR dancing to Wattstax footage but she would kill me if I posted it. Hell, she's probably going to be mad at me for mentioning that it even exists.

the other great stuff from that film is the Richard Pryor bits and the interviews w/ Black Panther Isaac, the bartender from the Pirate's Cove.
