This guy has talent spilling out of his eyes honestly, such a gifted and amazing dancer. Captivating
Michael would have been proud.
@@MrMetro-mt5qvummm...He is the one that taught MJ the Moonwalk.
@@MrMetro-mt5qvlmao, Jeffry should be proud of Michael 😂
He is FANTASTIC...!!! He never got the props he deserves...!!!
He was one of the first to do this kind of dancing and of course, he taught Michael Jackson the backslide/moonwalk
Exactly
That's Ok. CZcams bring everything to light. Great Performance Jeffrey! STILL got the moves!👣👏🎩
@@vijaybhuchar4703 exactly!!!!
He didn’t in the past, but he’s still here & he’s definitely gotten the PROPS NOW!!!! Respect ✊🏽 Mr. Daniel!!!!
I saw JD perform live in maidstone on saturday and was lucky enough to speak to him afterwards. He told me that he influenced michael and helped choreograph a few of his videos. Michael was also an influence on him too so they both learnt from each other and incorporated the moves into the unique styles they have today. I agree that they should both be respected for the talented artists they are!
Yeah he is the gave Michael the moonwalk...... They all got together from Soul train.
there is nothing more to say ...
among all others, Jeffrey Daniel is the best dancer !
Jeffrey Daniels is the Ip Man of dancing.
THEY NEED TO DO A MOVIE ON HIM
" A NIGHT TO REMEMBER," ON HOW HE DANCED HIS WAY TO THE TOP.
LIKE THE MOVIE STAYING ALIVE, JOHN TRAVOLTA . WORD!
You're absolutely right..he's amazing.
Naa! A movie will cheapen it.
This is *HIS.*
I totally agree
LOVE, love, love Jeffrey Daniels... dance, clothing style, hair his total fashion sense was revolutionary! Bravo--to a genius!
Its not just what he does, its how well he does it! He is so under-appreciated.
One word : Talent.
Two Words -Much Respect! WF-😎 🤩😍😉✌️👌
The guy that taught MJ to moonwalk.
Source?
Well done brain Britain .
nemoran Michael Jackson said that he paid a thousand dollars to a black guy to teach him how to moonwalk
@nemoran Latoya said that MJ asked Jeffrey Daniel to teach him the "backslide". Not only called Jeffrey, also called Boogaloo Shrimp. They teach him the dancing style and help him to improve it. Of course Michael is brillant and talent, could performe the dancing style amazingly. Unfourtunately Michael never give them credits. Another thing is that nobody said Jeffrey Daniel invented the wrong called "moonwalk" (real name: "backslide", moonwalk is another move, but Michael wrongly called it "moonwalk") actually nobody knows who invented it. A Michael Jackson's fan should know this. What kind of fan are you?
@nemoran u sound stupid
I've been a huge mj fan for 29 years but you cannot deny Jeffrey's Influence on him.From his style of dancing to his military outfits.Don't know why so-called hard-core fans don't realize this.MJ still was a genius.People mention mj's popping and lockin' on the variety show, but those routines were supposed to be spoofs on the real dance troupe called "The Lockers."Just look up their videos on youtube. Look up their performances from 1975 and the 1979 moonwalking routine it's on here.
Awesome, Jeffery Daniel is a dancing legend and one of my all time favorite dancers.
1982 was such a good year, Shalamar, Kids from Fame, Survivor, Evelyn Champagne king all flying high in the Charts.
If not the best, then he was the greatest dancer of those days..
I can't stop repeat this song. So much better than today's music. I feel so alive everyday.
All the music from that time brings back sooo many memories. Shalimar, The Whispers, Lakeside, Slave etc I saw them a couple times in LC. La back in early 80's !!!!! Long for those days and music
i don't care what nobody says!! this dude is the TRUTH on the dance floor!!!
Jeffrey Daniels and Michael Jackson, dance styles are totally different, like fire & water. When Jeffrey dances he's very smooth, classy, cool, graceful and has good body extension. When he moonwalks or backslides it looks as if he's walking on air, with little to no effort at all. He gives the impression of making, you think you can actually, do this move, with grace & ease like him. Think again. Michael on the other hand, dances with power, speed, stamina & dominance. He gives the illusion, of making you feel, like you can dance with energy, power, speed & passion, and move like, him. Not so! Both are excellent, as dancers & performers, also show great mastery in their style of dance. I would say, both become one with the dance, totally captivating their audience. In the spotlight, Michael has been, overwhelming, while Jeffrey has been underrated. I would also, say Jeffrey brings a certain polished, hypnotic, mystique to his dancing persona. Michael brings an optimistic, allure, & awe to his, dancing persona. Even though, I feel like I've grown-up, with Michael and he's inspired me to want to dance, every since I was 7, Jeffrey inspired me also, to dance at 13, pop-lockin. In my opinion Jeffrey is the better dancer. Both are Mega-Glorius! R.I.P., M.J. Dance on J.D.!!!
This!

Jeffrey Daniel participated in the clip "Bad" .. and danced side by side with Michael Jackson...
I like Michael’s style of moon walking better. Way better in MY opinion.
Thank you thank you Jermaine Stewart for your music,rest in peace dear Jermaine🙏✨🥰🎶🎼🎵🎤🙌❤️
He is the best dancer! Their movements are so soft, they make me fall in love. nobody like Jeffrey the king!
♔♡
👏👏🙌❤😍😍😍
Simply, the best dancer.
It's video's like this why in my opinion CZcams is the best thing to ever happen to mankind!!!
He still looks amazing and dances excellently. I agree that a movie should be done about him. He never got the credits that he deserves
Linda… you made so many people happy, thank you for being YOU!
OMG WHAT A TREAT FOR MY EYES!! I LOVE THIS!!! MESMERIZING!
Jeffrey and Michael are both amazing dancer!
Jeffery Daniel has always been a forc!e to be reckoned with in the dance arts!
Jeffrey Daniels is truly gifted individual. Have never seen anything like this........!!
Timeless…
Jeffrey is smooth, man...just smooth
Oh this guy was a very smooth dancer props due.
First of all, stop arguing about MJ and JD, they were both great! Jeffery choreographed in many of MJ's videos, including Bad, Smooth Criminal, and Ghosts! Jeffery taught MJ these moves, Michael just perfected them and improved them, alot of dancers do that!! Michael even got half of his moves from James Brown and Jackie Wilson, it's called influence, people! -_-
he did teach mj to moonwalk, and he also co-choreographed bad and smooth criminal. He and mj are both great and unique dancers in their own right
Wore out mum's kitchen lino trying this in my youf days lol.
OMG I wish I can dance I have two left feet. Jeffrey Daniels is amazing.
Born in 1989 here. I want to live in this time. This is better. My generation got stuck with some bullshit.
Jeffrey taught MICHEAl JACKSON the moonwalk.
*BRAVO👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏*
He makes the cutest facial expressions!!! Anyone noticed?! Jeff you the man!!!
Why do people compare Michael to Jeffrey Daniel? Michael never admitted to inventing any of his moves, he was obv inspired by many dancers but the different is Michael put that finesse in his dancing, he danced inside the music, Jeffrey Daniel helped choregraph some of Michaels videos, they are both amazing an unique in their own way. Difference is Michael is the greatest entertainer/singer of ALL TIME.
He was BADASS
Jeffrey Daniel’s is a Legend of the dance 👍👍👍
Beyond brilliant 🤩
What a great dancer. So smooth with his turns.
Jeffrey Daniel was the king & original body popping, he taught Michael Jackson.
Mais quel TALENT ce Jeffrey Daniel, époustouflant !!!
We have to thank this man so much because he's the one who taught are Michael how to moonwalk and if Michael hadn't done that move the world would never be the same
Jeffrey Daniel of the soul music group Shalamar co-choreographed the "Smooth Criminal" video with Jackson and Vincent Paterson, who was a back-up dancer in "Beat It" and "Thriller". It was directed by special effects coordinator Colin Chilvers. The dance sequence of the video in the 1930s style lounge (and Michael's white suit and fedora) pays tribute to the Fred Astaire musical comedy film The Band Wagon.
Amazing
This is phenomenal !
That move at 1:14 is killer.
Thank you for posting
never seen anything like like before in my life,really caught fire with the youth of england,thanks jeff.
This the man who taught Michael Jackson these moves!!!!!
Respect to #MichaelJackson he did say he didn't invent the moonwalk...Jeffrey Daniels taught him many moves but MJ perfected them to such smoothness both are greats 👊🏿✊🏿
This takes me back to high school. Miss those days!! Sweet memories.
I loved this video
MAN Jeffery daniels is by far the greatest dancer of the 70s,80s, 90s and all the other centuries to come. No One can top jeffery.
ohh! and shalamar,s song are AWSOME!!!!!!
genius.love watching Jeffrey he's the greatest dancer!
The original moon walk.!!
Frigging brilliant
I always loved yur dance moves & you still got em Jeffery 👍
I can see where Michael Jackson got his moves from in the video Smooth Criminal.
Yeah Jefferey acually helped with the choreography on that video.
Jeffrey taught mj many of the moves.
Michael did it better though
@@samsunggs6998 100% Its easy to learn from someone else than to create them yourself
@@samsunggs6998 Michael has his own style to dance and Jeffrey too. Both are talent. I don't agree with you Jeffrey was amazing doing the backslide.😍 At first didn't liked how MJ did it, but then he improve the move. 😍
In awe of this amazing man when I was growing up ❤️
Magistral lesson. Anywhere you look at, in all directions left to right, down to up, close to infinite, Shalamar was the ultimate band of early eighties
Go boy, smooth as silk.
Mike is the absolute coldest but this guy is amoung the best I have seen...
The master
watched it the week before, and the 2nd time around, in them days you watched totp
Silky smooth :)
man, take it down a notch. Jeffrey Daniel was a fantastic dancer in the 1970's and became a well know choreographer BECAUSE of the initial work he did with Michael Jackson preparing him for the Motown 25 performance. nuff said. As a matter of fact, Jody Watley was also a fantastic dancer and that is how they remained in Shalamar..
by at least a year before Michael also!! The good thing is Jeffrey did always get his due!! Thats why we are watching this :)
This gives me goosebumps.
Great, thanks for this rare archive, i like it.
Unforgettable time of music, perfect Daniel and shalamar. 👏👏👏👏😗
Like when Jeffrey does the body popping ⭐️
Luv this song ..and SHalamar🍷
He was the creator of the Moonwalk,he called the backslide,this is the guy that taught it Michael,But Michael just took it to a higher level
so amazing!
.....scary but true....over three decades and these same moves are still being performed by group of young kids on NYCity subway platforms and cars....no way they knew Jeffrey Daniels....or ever seen him perform......pure genius-ism...
Wonderful
pure genius!!
Love it he’s an amazing dancer one of a kind 😀
so good
original moonwalk king
Just watched it, very good point well put 3Dimensional!
Got to be one of my favorites 🥰
YES SIR...........Great comment.
I'm a huge mj fan but this is kinda eye-opening. He's a great dancer but mj learned and then perfected those moves. either way both are awesome.
a good work shalamar new generation are you real watching these special talents which cannot be seen nowadays!!!!!!!!
he had the moves.and a fab figure to go with it
Jeffrey Daniel, un bailarín excepcional, de todos los tiempos.
Drinking tea on top of the pops. genious. .)
He was always a cool Guy and great dances... Jeffrey D...

"Why do people compare Michael to Jeffrey Daniel? Michael never admitted to inventing any of his moves, he was obv inspired by many dancers but the different is Michael put that finesse in his dancing, he danced inside the music......."
True ...and Michael WAS doing all the robot moves and super spins way back in the 70's, too.
I remember and love this group though :>)
Called back!

he just makes it look SO easy
Fantástico!
Jeffrey es todo , el padre el maestro!
