Ziegfeld Follies And I'm sure it might be earlier than Ziegfeld considering that he stole alot of the "group dance" routines from black performers. In short, nobody really knows for sure who came up with the concept. | |

But these were self-contained group that were their own dancers. I would say Ike & Tina Turner had back-up dancers before anyone else. my first thought was Ike and Tina as well.
