There is not enough Ben Vereen on You Tube. I know that he did a TV Special years ago and I would love to see it again. He was voted Entertainer of the Year.
Watching Fosse choreograph himself reminds me of the achievement forty years ago of an athlete who, contrary to established technique, revolutionized the sport of high jumping. While his method,
to many, looked funny, stupid and embarassing, what with going over the bar backwards and all; any fan of Fosse ought to appreciate the poetic justice behind this fellow's winning of a gold medal due almost entirely to the ingenuity of what is now proudly called the Fosbury flop.
