"I had the priveledge to have a phone call from Tom yesterday. He tells me is over 80 now
and still dancing. He told me the video was recorded in Co Derry in the late seventys"
My pleasure Dave and Tooty! I love this sort of stepping. Neat story about dear auld Tom there too, hope that's still accurate and that he's still at it, go get 'em Mr. King!
Made me smile! I'm not too bothered about dancers/dancing as a rule but I have to say I enjoyed the performance.
Mebbe' not a brilliant 'recording' but it does show what can and how it should be done. (IMO of course).
