  1. Thanks for publishing this picture. I din’t remember Cooper appearing as a guest on the show. People always said I lloked like Jackie Cooper, but side by side, there isn’t a lot of resemblance.

        1. Hi Dale,
          How are you? I was wondering about Roberta and how long you were married to her. I recall visiting you two and there was a baby.
          I am living in Hamilton, MT.
          Many thanks and take care of my hero!

  2. I was on Detroit Bandstand twice. #1 I had to dance in the back cause I had no male partner, # second I worked my way to the front cause I had a male partner. It was between 1957/58. Yea you did look like him.

  3. Dale emceed a “Junior achiement” dance at the Rosedale Park Comminity Center in ’58 or ’59. He danced a “slow one”with Jean Eby who was one of our 2 eighth grade sex goddosses.

  4. I loved watching the Detroit Bandstand show every day. I lived in Flint at the time and remember some of the ” regulars ” from the show coming to dances at the Flint Armory and dancing with us kids from Flint. It truly was a highlight in my youth. Thanks for the memories.

  5. Hi,
    Are there any videos of Detroit Bandstand? My father in law was a regular and my family would love to see him dance.
    Thank you,

  6. 12 of us from Lincoln Park were chosen to be regulars on Detroit Bandstand. It was exciting to actually meet the current popular singers who gave us those 8X10 autographed glossy photos. Dale Yound and his wife were very nice to us all.
