The Hully Gully is a type of unstructured line dance often considered to have originated in the 1960s, but is also mentioned some forty years earlier as a dance common in the black juke joints in the first part of the twentieth century.[1] In its modern form it consisted of a series of dance steps called out by the MC. Each step was relatively simple and easy to execute; however, the challenge was to keep up with the speed of each step.[citation needed]
The phrase "Hully Gully" or "Hull da Gull" comes from a folk game in which a player shakes a handful of nuts or seeds and asks his opponent "Hully Gully, how many?"[2]
