From the movie: A DAY AT THE RACES 1937
This was without question the best performance swing dance group ever. The dancers in order of appearance are: Dorothy Miller & Johnny Ennis, Leon James & Norma Miller, Snookie Beasley & Willa Mae Ricker and Ella Gibson & George Greenidge. This is definitely one of the best examples of east coast savoy style Lindy Hop ever put on film.

They're so talented.
But can you imagine how incredibly good the dancers and musicans were. When just dancing around, socialising and having a laugh? Xxx
