From the short: PHONY BOY 1937
Some of the best vintage Collegiate Shag I’ve ever seen on film. I’m posting this with the kind permission of dancer and dance historian Joe Robinson who through considerable effort and expense was able to get a copy of this short from the Library of Congress. Joe identifies the dancers as from left to right at the beginning Virginia Hart & William Ledger, the 1937 Harvest Moon Collegiate Shag champions John & Ruth Englert and Joan & Gene Biggins. I would highly recommend that anyone interested in swing dance both vintage and modern check out Joe’s You Tube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/user/snakeblskn
my favorite shag clip besides Dates and Nuts from 1937
Wooooow, no conocía este ritmo ni baile, como se llama?
