"Keep On Dancing" is a rock song written by Allen A. Jones, Andrew Love and Richard Shann, originally recorded by the U.S. R&B group, The Avantis (not to be confused with the surf rock band with the same name) on Argo Records in 1963.

[3] The Gentrys' version was first released on Youngstown 601 in 1965, but was soon nationally distributed by MGM Records.

The second part of the song (after the false fade, beginning with Gentrys drummer Larry Wall's drum fill) is the same as the first.

[5] Although the Gentrys usually had Jimmy Hart and Bruce Bowles as singers, the band's guitarist, Larry Raspberry, sang lead vocals on the song.

[4][7] It surpassed a million copies in sales after leaving the charts.
