[Dixielandjazz] Eleanor Powell and Buddy Rich

[Ron Wheeler]

Makes you wonder how many takes it took to get that whole routine.  Geez...
I bet Bill Haesler has a bookmark sitting at the very page bearing the
answer.

Eleanor Powell is my favorite female tap dancer, and that routine is one of
my favorites.  The bit with the drumsticks with Buddy Rich is amazing.

  Dear mates,
  Watch for Tommy Dorsey in the intro, listen for Ziggy Elman and Heinie  
  Beau in the band backing and marvel at Ms Powell and Buddy Rich,  
  particularly right at the end.
  Don't mention the name of the film or the video police will pull this  
  great clip.
