Lena’s Music 27 July 1979: Flick Colby’s Ruby Flipper dance,
while Lena Martell sings In The Ghetto–
Thanks to Andeebee for the YouTube post.
From the old blog, Saturday, 18 February 2012:
Here’s the last of the Ruby Flipper routines from their residency on Lena Martell’s 1979 TV show. This time Lena’s singing In the Ghetto written by Mac Davis, and of course most famously sung by Elvis.
This is essentially a solo dance performance, with the rest of the team in a strictly supportive role. It’s great to see these rare examples of the gitls work, but I can’t help feeling that Flick has hardly been inspired in this whole series.
As with the other “Lena’s Music Ruby Flipper routines, I was sent this clip by the generous PattiforPM. But I seem to have forgotten to stay thanks in this original blog post. Apologies, and belated thanks.
