Alex Chilton gets horrified!
Alex Chilton's first group, "The Box Tops" make a 1967 appearance on the most macabre local dance show you'll ever see: The legendary DISCOTEEN on Newark New Jersey's Channel 47.
Watch if you dare! [maniacal laughter]

I hear dogs barking.....
I screamed... but then, that happens whenever I'm in Jersey, so...
That was frightening on so many levels...
@doahsdeer - Was that not a crazy blast from the past, Jeff?
@Ed_Kaz - I flashed back to 1967. A dance party in the high school gym. Hosted by WMCA Good Guy, Ed Bear, and featuring The Jive Five. Except for the costumes, it was a helluva lot like the video.
tv dance parties... and i was wondering why we don't have them anymore- until this!
I thought I was so cool! lol
Wow! Time warp! I watched, I laughed, I did the Herky Jerky, again!
Is that Dr Shock? I haven't seen him since I was 12!
@doahsdeer - This is one of the only remaining pieces of video from that show. The
Doors also made a very early TV appearance. It's lost, unfortunately.
Classic.
