Musical Interlude: Neutron Dance (1984)

The movie "Beverly Hills Cop" spawned a few hits off the soundtrack in 1984. The first of these was the Pointer Sisters' "Neutron Dance", which features movie clips in the video, and a guest appearance by one of the film's lesser-known (at the time) stars, Bronson Pinchot, who plays the girls' supervising usher at a movie theatre.

Here, then, is the video everyone remembers. Pinchot eventually gets into the groove by the end, and between this and his role in the movie, he eventually landed his TV gig on Perfect Strangers. Also, watch for a quick cameo by Gary Burghoff (ex-M*A*S*H), who also gets into the beat.
