Watching Ms. Jody Watley evolve from an pretty teenager to a beautiful young woman on "Soul Train" is rewarding and inspiring, still. And yet, very talented. Thanks so much for sharing these classic moments.
These two are the most legendary of all dancers and so many of the greatest have derived their talents from these two pioneers. I had the pleasure in talking to Jeffrey and he took the time out of his busy schedule to get to know how my day was going. Two incredibly underrated individuals. I still pop/lock to this day because of these two greats and I will always have them to thank when it comes to dancing in front of an audience and getting the party started!
2:21 Awesome shufflin'!!!!! I never knew Jodi Watley was such a great dancer. Wow! This is the kind of fresh dancing from the era when is was about the dancing and having good clean fun with it. Today, women just shake their asses in the camera and practically show their poonany and call in dancing. Depressing. I'm inventing a time machine and traveling to the seventies to hang out at Soul Train with Jodi Watley and Jeffrey Daniel!
-Es increíble la creatividad de esta gente en aquellos tiempos. Son lo máximo. -the creativity of these people in those times is incredible. They are the best.
looking at this era of soul train compared to that of the 90s into 2000s, it's easy to see the shift of emphasis from showing off moves to showing off body parts.
It says somewhere on UA-cam that Jeffrey introduced the moonwalk. As can be seen at 01:09 Jody and Jeffrey also more or less invented the PSY horse riding dance (Gangnam Style). All respect to Jody and Jeffrey
I hate when great groups break up over petty differences, they was a one of a kind group,.Howard Hewitt & Jody Watley's vocals complimented each other perfectly,. They tried to fix or replace something that wasn't broken.
0:42 Michael Jackson used Jeffery Daniels walk head whip a lot in his younger years (seen here). Michael was very influenced by Jeffrey's style of dance.
................HOW MUCH I MISS THESE TIMES 😥........I ALWAYS FELT MORE SAFER WALKING ANYWHERE ALONE😏.......I STAY OUT OF THE WORLDS POLLUTED AIR😩.....GO WITH JEHOVAH😇!!!.......😎
wow. don't see much dancing like this anymore. and there was no wardrobe department which meant that back then they really knew how to dress. i want some of those outfits myself especially the dress in the last dance scene.
Man she was FINE, and an awsome natural dancer been watchin her for hours on youtube an aint realize that was her, she was a waay better dancer than singer, and she had a good music career, but you can tell dancing was her LOVE...
Jody was just a natural. She never tried too hard she was just bad plain and simple.
She had some great moves, love her singing. And I think she was incredibly beautiful.
Jody is amazing
yes extremely beautiful
Yes very beautiful , even now.
Jody and Jeffrey were great dancers and singers together...
Back when music and dancing were fun. I miss these times.
Jeffrey and Jody, both beautiful, talented bad @#$!!! Excellent.
Jody was a disco queen of the 1970's. I liked when she danced with fans. she was so chic.
Awwww Jody is naturally beautiful. And I love her voice. Wishing her all that is positive and good!!😍😍🌹🌹🌹🌹
Jody and Jeffery Daniels....what an elegant, classy duo....they were just too sharp!!
She started dancing up there at 14. One of my favorite dancers.
I love that... "Always negativity you just have to stay focused and keep moving forward". Jody Watley

I couldn't wait to see them two dance every Sat. morning

I never missed Soul Train as a kid. Wicked moves, great tunes. The ‘old days’ were so chill 👏✌️
they used to jam back in the day.way better then they do today
My favorite dance couple of all times on Soul Train.
Damn, that woman can dance!!!
She was my favorite soul-train dancer and member of Shalamar!
WOW! I didn't know Jody was a Soul Train dancer!! That was my girl in the 80's!

This was definitely nice to watch. Thanks for posting. Jody could dance her but off :)
Nobody can dance like black people do it, improvised, naturally, i wish to be black
jody was so cute...
Still is
Soul Train brings back memories! A simpler, happier time...
I can't stop watching the "fight" scene, LOL. It looked more realistic than some professional wrestling matches I've seen!

I never knew who the dancers were. Just familiar faces. I enjoyed this. Great moves.
Jody has always been a beautiful girl and awesome entertainer SINGER! Oh well haters will be haters, although they really love you❤😊❤😊❤

beautiful thing to say Jody ..."there's always negativity, but you just gotta stay focused ...!
I love her she so awesome

Jody was determined to make it, glad she found success. However, Howard Hewitt just the best singer in that group.
Pretty hair
Go jody ...
