Hey Rock n’ Roll Random Bloggers and Blogettes!!!
One of my favorite music videos of all time is The Rolling Stones Harlem Shuffle. Not only for the music, but because of the cool animation.

The Harlem Shuffle was originally done by the duet, Bob and Earl in 1963. It was covered later by Booker T and the MG’s.
The Stones later did a cover of it in 1986.
It was directed by Ralph Bakshi. The animation was directed by future creator of Ren & Stimpy, John Kricfalusi. Animators included Lynne Naylor, Bob Jaques, Jim Smith and Pat Ventura.
It has some of the coolest classic looking animation complete with big takes and nice timing. The backgrounds are real stylized and color direction is awesome.
Take care and continued fun and success with you big Hollywood animated motion pichas!!!
