[@CharlotteIssyvoo]

The last bit of this actually made me cry. How wonderful to see young kids dancing with their elders and learning a fabulous dance from them.

No. I have not had contact with her since I left Las vegas in 1980. She was still spectacular as a performer then.

[@Featureman]

I did some shows in the late 1970s with Norma Miller in Las Vegas. We met at Joe Behar's Drama Workshop.

I saw a fella get a presidential award from Clinton, when Pinetop Perkins got his award. Was travelin with Pine at the time. Is this the 94 Y.O. that you are talking about? It was around '98 (or so) ..and this guy was DANCING- on stage! He told me he was the inventor of Lindy Hop,and was introduced as the inventor.. a real angel of a man, very sharp and friendly!

[@cinnamonbrandylite]

musical chairs with them? I'd throw it, land on my behind and die laughing. much respect. h.

[@LindyHopRules]

How old was Frankie Manning in that interview and when he was dancing with that young gal? He could move pretty good for someone at that age. I saw him a few times, but have never seen him dance. RIP Mr. Manning.

[@7roach]

[@enmaxus]

So it was Black people that invented the lindy hop/jitterbug. Im not surprised.

[@rich3371]

What variety of potato was used to record this? I'm thinking Russet

[@7roach]

[@Timetonut]
