@@JoseBXNY Thank you for your reply. I guess this video was made in 1967/68 maybe 1969. We all agreed this is a block or street party. If this was indeed in 1967/68/69, this was before the pioneers. Again, I am not saying this is Hip Hop, but this video shows where they grown up with in NY. The pioneers got there records from their parents collection. The seed was maybe not planted, but it waved through the air all the time 😉 What is your opinion?

Yes I agree. It was actually the girls that started the burning. It wasn't until a few years later that it was more pronounced. We danced closer to the girls and the hand gestures were closer to the face. Great observation!

I lived in Harlem back in 1967; I was 6/7 years old. I don't where this was at, I was trying to see anything I recognized from back then, but I didn't notice anything in particular. It might have been not far from where my family and I lived. For most of the year we lived on 115th Street between Park and Lexington Avenues. In August my family and I moved to 118th Street between Fifth and Madison.

Great footage, but for all those in the comments saying this is "the origin of Hip Hop", I don't see any graffiti pieces on the walls, no one breaking dancing, DJ not scratching or replaying the breakbeats, etc... while these block parties were great for the community, let's be clear...this is not Hip Hop and let's give credit to those who took these block parties and evolved it to what we now know today as Hip Hop.

That interplay at 0:34 couple dancing, one guy walks by and does the exaggerated look back at the young lady, then the tall guy walks into frame, does a slick on beat scan of the girl and of the dude shes dancing with then continues walking. But notice her hand goes up in a "stop, keep walking" motion just as the tall guy approaches. So much information in this small clip. or I might be reading too much into it lol

@@1800BrickCity I think he's referring to the 'over-performance' of the Soul Train dancers: big smiles, hitting all the steps strong, etc. You could call it 'hamming it up for the camera' in the old idiom, but black Americans of the current era tend to judge that behavior as low key minstrelsy.

@@1800BrickCityCalm yourself, sir/ maam. 😆 I don't disagree, all of my grandparents were from the Carolinas and I myself read as 'country' to other ny'ers. I didn't make it clear, bc this is yt and not academia, but I based my theory off an elder yter's opinion. This elder is not a ny'er, btw. He's from Chicago, in the same place and era where Soul Train started. He's the one who made the point that, when it was in Chicago, the kids were still 'cool.' Moving to LA, land of professional dancers and such, is what made it 'hammy'. Bc they were professional performers, not just bp feeling the vibes.
