FOR THE BENEFIT OF NEW BLOG READERS---I AM GOING TO REVIEW SOME SECULAR MUSIC AND GROUPS THAT I LIKE. HANG ON TO YOUR POODLE SKIRTS AND BUTCH WAX. HERE GOES PART 2
BOYS AND GIRLS:
Boogie Woogie: Here's some history you probably do not know. This music genre did not start in Harlem, New Orleans, or even Chicago. It started in the tall pine logging camps of East Texas by a black gentlemen by the name of "Pinetop" Perkins. He died not too long ago at the age of 97. See what this music can do for you!!!! OK, bet you didn't know that.
Even today, Boogie Woogie contests are held today throughout Europe. You Tube has a zillion vids of such contests. This dancers are great---in my Baptist opinion!
Check out this 14 year old phenomenon: This is my favorite Boogie Woogie song. Luca Sestak has grown up and travels the world with this international music.

Boogie Woogie Dancers: No doubt about it; Will and Mava (French) are the world's best. Notice the high energy, straight shoulders, and showmanship that compliments super, super dancing. Watch for Will's line in the sand that challenges others to beat him. Silvan Zingg (Swiss) is a master Boogie Woogie player and international dance promoter.
