@jwharrison@mastodon.social Fascinating. On several levels. My biggest question is: why the Alfred E. Newman dance routine?

@donutage@mastodon.social 12 years ago I was going for an homage to Ghoulardi, who became associated with the song, Then I discovered that Fred Astaire tangoing to Ellington’s “Sophisticated Lady” fit the music—kinda, sorta, if you don’t inspect it too thoroughly. The dance partner is Barrie Chase who did the twist with Dick Shawn in "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"
