I’ve never seen it done quite like that! More than a little bit of jitterbug thrown in. You must have been quite a good dancer.
Eleanor Powell's single, double, and triple turns are still unexcelled...and there are couple of steps she does here that are still difficult to duplicate.

I'd say it's on a par with the first complete run-through of the number that Astaire and Powell did, but you just know they did it a dozen or more times perfecting it.
You know what's funny about Villa-Lobos' brilliant Bachianas - I didn't realize until about five or six years ago that it's all based on - Bach.

I’ve never seen it done quite like that! More than a little bit of jitterbug thrown in. You must have been quite a good dancer.Happily, I was passable in the musical shows I did. I never did more than I did in "The Music Man" in college. The "Marian the Library" number was my bete noir. Learned how to do a knee slide without knee pads. I have not recovered to this day.My dancing could be compared to Astaire's singing. I was on beat and got it done.
Too late... DR John G. could have brought these for tonight.
Sometimes I'm dense.
