I've gone over and over trying to figure out a good
way to describe this site, and I just can't. All I can say is
that it illustrates one of the REALLY BEST things about the Web
--
frantically obsessed people collecting huge passels of
information
not available anywhere else, and PUBLISHING it, and then getting
more info from readers, and publishing that, etc. It's a totally
cool model for JOURNALISM and just plain REFERENCE, and when the
subject of RESEARCH is the FABULOUS SOLID GOLD DANCERS (!!!!!),
you're in for nothing for pure sexy informative fun,
baby.
For those who don't know, the Solid Gold Dancers were
the in-house troupe for the TV Show "Solid Gold." They danced
little dances while Marilyn McKoo and Andy Gibb read off the
names
of the Top 10 songs of the week (with accompaniment). For a few
golden years in the 80s, the Solid Gold Dancers were synonymous
with white-bread sex appeal. They were BUILT, they did
SUGGESTIVE
CROTCH-GRINDING DANCE MOVES, and they wore ASS-REVEALING OUTFITS
that probably required a lot of Nair to make them legal for
national TV. The SG Dancers were the only feature that got
thousands of teenage boys to tune in to an otherwise crappy show.
Between "Solid Gold" and "30-Minute Workout," this young hornball
hardly needed any porn.
I'm dead serious in saying that the information on
this site is breath-taking. It's just amazingly comprehensive:
names and histories of every single dancer in the 8-year history
of the show as well as hundreds of photographs and even
INTERVIEWS
with the dancers themselves (example tautological interview
response by dancer Lezlie: "We wouldn't have been as successful
if
it hadn't been for so many fans.").
Anyways, check out The Solid Gold Dance Connection
and check all that shit on out.
