Here is a curious thing: They had these girls dance the first time on TOP OF THE POPS and explained they needed a name for the all-girl-group. You had to send in your proposed name and the judges would select which name they preferred. That, then, would be the name of the group to replace PANS PEOPLE. Well, I chose "Legs and co" but never sent off my nomination. Then, the next series of TOP OF THE POPS, they announced the name of the new female dance group. Yes, it was Legs and co. Weird huh? Now, guys, tell me these ladies don't have the hottest legs you'll see. Here's an early pic of the dance group: Attached Thumbnails __________________ "Everybody has a philosophy.

I found an old tape with recording from seventies radio which I was listening to. There was David Soul, Heatwave, Elvis (before he died) and Donna Summer. These were the tunes the ladies danced to often on Top Of The Pops. Even Abba were on the tape. It's a shame how computer downloads have somehow knackered the old vinyl disks and the charts. __________________ "Everybody has a philosophy.

I checked the BBC website and found this "To fill the gaps, they came up with the bright idea of using a troupe of dancing girls to act out an elaborate routine to the hit single. Although the Go-Jos were the first group of dancers, it was Pan's People, masterminded by Flick Colby, who captured the imaginations of girls who wanted to be like them and boys and men who were just "appreciating the music". Pan's People, who made their debut on the show in 1968 dancing to Tommy James And The Shondells' hit Mony Mony, stayed with the show for a decade. Legs and Co replaced dance troupe Pans' People They were briefly replaced by Ruby Flipper before morphing into Legs & Co and despite a more politically-correct group called Zoo, featuring men and women, the rise in music videos saw the iconic dancing groups shimmer off the stage for the last time in the early 1980s." __________________ Happiness is .............. watching the peleton from behind.
