From the vaudeville era, through the Astaire-Rogers movies, to the
intricate artistry of bebop, tap has dominated American dance with
its rhythm, originality, and humor. This book collects the voices
and memories of thirty of America's best-loved tap-dance stars and
two hundred rare theater, film, and publicity photographs. Here
Shirley Temple recalls her magical duo with Bill "Bojangles"
Robinson; Fayard Nicholas describes his days at Harlem's Cotton
Club performing with Cab Calloway; Fred Kelly visits his and his
brother Gene's Pittsburgh dance studio; Hermes Pan reminisces about
his work with George Gershwin, Ginger Rogers, and Fred Astaire;
and, in a chapter new to this edition, Toy and Wing tell about
their days as the world's leading Asian tap duo. Appended with the
most comprehensive listing of tap acts, recordings, and films ever
compiled--newly updated for this paperback edition--"Tap!" brings
to life the legends of one of America's most cherished and enduring
art forms.
