Fred Astaire spoke about how he would come n watch them practice n would be amazed at how talented they were.These 2 brothers were Simply The Best!!!!

[@MaureenBrennan-w7o]

They were not formally trained. Their sister was taking tap lessons and would come home and teach them what she learned. His parents wound up buying a theater where all the best dancers would perform and they learned by watching them. From there they developed their unique style.

[@terrance3343]

So they were just born with style? These beautiful brothers were always at the top of their game.

These guys make Fred Astaire look like he's wearing lead boots.

[@MaureenBrennan-w7o]

Fred Astaire would agree with you.

[@paulabroussard1824]

Amazingly, Harold is 16 here, but looks so much younger. Fayard is 22.

[@zaletabuskin]

Often these films were recorded and then released years later from backstock. From other footage I have seen - combined with the release date of ‘Zaz Zuh Zaz’ - I’d more likely guess this was recorded in either ‘33 or ‘34, making them 13-14 and 18-19, respectively :-)

[@paulabroussard1824]

@@zaletabuskin You're right that that is often the case, however, this is a British production and was recorded during the brother's trip to England to perform in the show Lew Leslie's Blackbirds. I knew Fayard very well and am actually working on their biography right now. He told me personally that it was filmed in 1937.

[@andreyarborough]

@@paulabroussard1824 Did they mention anything about their time in Istanbul?

[@paulabroussard1824]

@@andreyarborough Yes, a lot. Why do you ask?

[@andreyarborough]

@paulabroussard1824 I've lived in Istanbul for a long time. I read Eartha Kitt mentioning they were already here and give her the do's & don'ts. But I haven't been able to find anything about it online.

[@waldolydecker8118]

Actually "Zaz Zuh Zaz" - Cab Calloway, original release, 1933

[@DerNerdChannel]

sounds like shit compared to Cab Calloway's version from Hi-De-Ho
