From what I understand this music video of Rick Derringer singing "Hang On Slooppy" was shot around 72 (Title says 65 but commenters are saying 72) and the dancing girl's name is Liz Brewer. Then check out the second video to see what Liz is up to today!

The video of Liz Brewer is not the dancing girl in Hang on Sloopy. She is British and was never married to Rick. The Liz that was married to Rick is American and lives in the Hamptons. She was a journalist that I interviewed rock stars and got her start with Andy Warhol's magazine.

It's conceivable there could be two women who went by the same name and who had two very different careers. It's not at all unusual for the whoever posts the videos to Youtube to get it wrong or for Youtube to get it wrong by linking two people as being the same.

UPDATE: Like most everyone else, I assumed the information found about who the girl dancing in the video came up was Liz Brewer, Rick's wife who is now a famous Britain socialite and etiquette party planner or that she was a different Liz Brewer who happened to share that name. Fact is neither of them are the dancer. So I am correcting what I originally posted after doing research of my own, and meeting the man who is finally showing the proof of who the dancer is. I have been in contact with the editor who has searched for a year to find the identity of the Sloopy dancer. Here are facts he uncovered: The video was shot in 1975 as a remake for European release. The song was recorded and was a hit in 1965. Liz Brewer of Britain has never had association with Rick Derringer nor was she the dancer in the video. Liz Derringer, Rick's ex-wife's maiden name was Agriss. There is a new video being release this month, Aug. 2021, showing the story and the identity of the Sloopy Girl dancer. A link will be available on the YouTube videos of Hang On Sloopy when it's released. Her story is very interesting. It tells how she came to be there.

There is a new video about the Wives of Rick Derringer. It is by the same journalist that spent a very long time looking for and finding the real Sloopy Girl dancer in the video Hang On Sloopy, Lisa Leonard Dalton. There is the link to the article that contains dates, pictures, copy of marriage License and other information. pugetsound.media/2021/10/03/sloopy-wives-fact-and-fiction/
