This family was so talented. I had forgotten that at least two of them played instruments in addition to their singing and showmanship!

Nobody did the robot better than Michael Jackson. this was a game from October 73 - 1977 This used to play in nightclubs a lot.

You can still see that he had incredible dance ability. That spin and the way he moves...he was way better than the Lockers who were doing those dances.

@MIZZ2BAD sorry about the quality, it's the only version of this rare perfomance.

The only thing I wish to see him doing and when he did rock with you on his Destiny tour I really want to see you fooled ants robot when he was doing the song Dancing Machine on his Destiny tour when he was in New York 1979 cuz I know that dance is that good to me

Sadly afterwards the Family would be thrown into turmoil when they left Motown for Epic before their contract expired and got used for 20 Million Dollars

A bit crazy that Mike had to lip synch to a song they had recorded over 2 years prior :p
But nearly all their Dancing Machines performances were done live, so <3

[lorenzoadamson]

this was the end for jermaine...probably his last tv performance with them

[errolthomas]

These brothers should've performed Dancing Machine live instead of just lip syncing it since this episode took place in 1975

[meandemjay]

is it jus me, or do they look like tall dancing ghosts with afros

[youwatchmuchtv]

is this lip synced? Because thats not how he sounded in 1975
