Hi Paul,
Thanks for the old school dance. A few year’s back you posted Billy Crystal’s You look marvelous and I loved it! Is there any chance you have the “45” single with the instrumental edit available to post? I hope you and your family/friends are doing well through this stay-home period. Thank you!

Great stuff Paul. Am enjoying this Breakdance week, and later I might attempt a caterpiller across the kitchen.

So fun to have a break dance theme. Dug up the music video for this and had a blast listening and watching the geometric paint splattered shirts and jackets with the loose fitting break dance pants. What fun times! Thanks, Paul!

This is quite fabulous Paul. Thanks for continuing with the break dance theme.
I wonder what else you might have in your bag of tricks. This is such a cool record. I can’t wait to hear it.

Maybe this will be a breakdance week. How fine. Their first single “Street dance” was a huge hit here in France. Another awesome single to add to my collection. Thank you so much Paul.
