Novelty And Fad Dances
Novelty and fad dances are dances which are typically characterized by a short burst of popularity. Some of them, like the Twist, Y.M.C.A. and the Hokey Pokey, have shown much longer-lasting lives. They are also called dance fads or dance crazes. Fad dances As the pop music market exploded in the late 1950s, dance fads were commercialized and exploited. From the 1950s to the 1970s, new dance fads appeared almost every week. Many were popularized (or commercialized) versions of new styles or steps created by African-American dancers who frequented the clubs and discothèques in major U.S. cities like New York, Philadelphia and Detroit. Among these were the Madison, "The Swim", the " Mashed Potato", " The Twist", " The Frug" (pronounced ), " The Watusi", " The Shake" and " The Hitch hike". Many 1950s and 1960s dance crazes had animal names, including " The Chicken" (not to be confused with the Chicken Dance), " The Pony" and "The Dog". In 1965, Latin group Cannibal and the ...
