I forgot all about tap dancing. Thanks for the reminder.

I just saw him in the movie Taps. I was awed. Wow, what energy.

One of the real stylists of tap.Had the percussion chops but also honed a visual style to go with it. Did a 2-week residency with him in 1990. He wasn't giving up any of his good shit to us young punks. :D

Thank you very much for the videos from this incredible performance. Would you please upload the dance from Mr.Harold Cromer? I remember Dr.Slyde was so awesome in this performance as we can see. As always. Then Mr.Cromer followed. Best footage of him I can remember. I would love to be able to enjoy him dancing again!

[@TapDancingonRecord]

Hiroshi Hamanishi, I have uploaded the clip for you. Enjoy! ... and if you can, please help promote my upcoming tap history publication.

This is where he (Michael) learned his moves..... watching the great black tappers!
