I love how the director holds the shot so often. Today they switch from camera to camera to so qucikly you can't appreicate what the dancers are doing. It started with musica videos. Since the singers couldn't dance, the cameras had to.
See the Carol Haney version of Steam Heat on YouTube, and you will be floored! I suspect Michael Jackson found an inspiration in the Haney et. al. performance.
Fab. Bob fosse obvs..Look at the clothes..skinny etc..odd how it all turns about, Cardys etc..Liza was wonderful what happened to Tracy tho? Mmm..I feel sad..Google time
I agree but then I don't agree that the enormous change in pop culture closed down the wonderful entertainment that existed. For example, Dean Martin beat out the Beatles with "Everybody Loves Somebody." Sinatra remained enormously popular. Tony Bennett, Peggy Lee, Streisand, Julie Andrews, Sammy Davis and a host of other beloved performers weren't exactly unemployed after the Beatles hit the scene, not to mention the big black pop explosion of Motown. I think there was room for everybody.
I always wondered what happended to Tracy -- we watch this special every Christmas. It always strikes us how kind he is to Joey during the show. They seem to have a nice bond of friendship.
Maybe it's just me, but I think just maybe Liza could have helped this nice fella Tracy? With all the fame, money and connections Liza has had, her old pal is still stuck teaching tap and ballroom in Hoboken.
wow, I just got way dumber watching this.

True. And I LOVE The Beatles. But there is something special about this "old fashioned" way of performing! You can't beat it..
