2. Lots of fun.

The mashed potato label is misspelled. Of course if I could dance that well I probably wouldn’t mind if I had the occasional misspelled word.

3. They missed The Swim and the Frug


The Swim looks like The Jerk.

Here's the Wiki on The Frug, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frug_(dance)

A lot of fun dances that I had forgotten.

4. I've always found the White Boy Shuffle sufficient to my needs...

... but any compendium of '60s dances that remembers the Madison is all right in my book. Of course, coming from Philly I would have appreciated seeing the 81.

6. So funny. I associate these dances with the 50s.

I was in single digits back then. I guess time is relative.

9. Where was the Twist?

That was really popular in the early 60s.

14. I remember most of the songs...

We did The Swim, The Pony, and The Twist, maybe the Frug. I was a tween/teen.

Sometimes I had trouble doing the double step of the pony. But I loved it.
