Cover to Cover with Jack Foley – December 23, 2015

Today’s show is a tribute to Jack’s father, who was a song-and-dance man in vaudeville in the 1920s, and to vaudevillians in general. Jack will read two pieces, one written as part of my autobiography, the other written for a dance web site. You’ll also hear Gene Kelly performing a classic song and dance routine—a soft shoe originally performed by the master dancer, George Primrose (1852-1919), the Fred Astaire of his day. Jack’s father performed this routine as well—and taught it to Jack.
