Teenagers in 1960s would crowd into Tulsa's KOTV Channel 6 Studios on Saturdays for a live TV show called Dance Party. The retro show, sponsored by Pepsi, was similar to Dick Clark's American Bandstand. This was when KOTV's studios were at 3rd and Frankfort in downtown Tulsa. This is rare film as Dance Party was aired live and not typically recorded.
In this clip the band is the Rogues 5 featuring vocalist I.J. Ganem, Randy Ess, and drummer Jamie Oldaker . Jamie would later play with Eric Clapton, Bob Seger and Leon Russell. The showed was hosted in this film by Lee Bayley of KAKC, a popular top 40 Tulsa radio station in the 60s.
This 16mm film was enhanced by Jack Frank Productions, using speed correction and color correction tools.
