  1. Yay! Dee Dee Sharp! Although they both started a few years before, the Mashed Potato and the Bristol Stomp were still the top dances while I was in high school. Hearing “Gravy” had me get up to see if I could still do the Mashed Potato. Turns out, yes I can, but now I need a nap. And some potatoes.

    1. I’m glad you remembered how to do it! It sounds very close to The Locomotion to me. Get yourself some potatoes and make sure there is a cold pack in the freezer to nurse strained quadriceps tomorrow.

      1. No, no, no the Mashed Potato is not at all like the Locomotion. Neither is it like the Jerk, Watusi, Stroll, Hitch Hike or the Swim. I guess you had to be there. It was a narrow window before the 70s came along and gave us The Bump.
