A1 - SHOOT ME WHILE I'M HAPPY@!

One of the linchpins behind the Great Tap Revival of the 1970s and 80s, Jane Goldberg tracked down, studied with, and performed alongside some of the tap greats of the twentieth century. In the process, she came up with a genre all her own-"Rhythm & Schmooze." A romantic, Goldberg thought tap dancing would provide the most direct route to finding a partner like Fred Astaire. It did not, she discovered quickly. What she did discover, however, were her happy feet. Those feet, combined with great tenacity and endless curiosity, led her to ferret out a generation of show biz hoofers who had involuntarily gone underground. "Shoot Me While I'm Happy"-the title comes from an old vaudeville expression-captures a wealth of memories both wacky and touching. (PLEASE EMAIL IF WANT BY CHRISTMAS -hlwdtapmall@aol.co).

E - Tap Dancing America: A Cultural History by Constance Valis Hill

Here is the vibrant, colorful, high-stepping story of tap--the first comprehensive, fully documented history of a uniquely American art form, exploring all aspects of the intricate musical and social exchange that evolved from Afro-Irish percussive step dances like the jig, gioube, buck-and-wing, and juba to the work of such contemporary tap luminaries as Gregory Hines, Brenda Bufalino, Dianne Walker, and Savion Glover. Tap was long considered "a man's game," and Hill's is the first history to highlight such outstanding female dancers. as Ada Overton Walker, Kitty O'Neill, and Alice Whitman, at the turn of the 20th century, as well as the pioneering women composers of the tap renaissance, in the 70s and 80s, and the hard-hitting rhythm-tapping women of the millennium. Eye-witness accounts of early performances as well as interviews with today's greatest tappers, and richly illustrated with over ninety images. EMAIL to see if able to receive by Christmas...

F9 - THE 1930'S B. S. CHORUS

"RUSTY FRANK adds another great DVD from her ""Tapping With The Masters"" Series. The ""B.S. CHORUS"" is a classic tap dance routine known to date back to the early 1930's or even earlier. It is a basic one chorus dance comprised of four steps and a repeating break. Anyone who can already do a basic Time Step and Shuffle will find this dance a pure joy. For dancers of all ages!!! (Note: In the years of Vaudeville, there was a common formula for constructing a tap dance and it was called ""three and a break"". You would do one step three times and then a break - usually some form of time step would be first, in order to set the tempo for the band. The steps could be re-arranged and repeated, using simple staging changes to make a two chorus dance, sometimes using a flash ending.)"

Katherine Hopkins Nicholas - Fayard's wife wanted to preserve their early work and present the material in slow motion as these routines are rarely taught, due to the fast footwork, incredible steps and original style. This was before they used acrobatics in their act. Wonderful history to view or duplicate...Enjoy this very special DVD!!! A note from Ginger Roberts - ""WOW...I am honored to add this DVD to my tap library. Thank you and thank Katherine Nicholas for sharing this very important tap history. My husband and I sat here with dropped jaws, watching the performances!"
