Great tribute video! Happy World Lindy Hop Day!!!!
I played Bass Trombone in the Riverside Big Band in the Detroit area about 15 years ago. Frankie was teaching for a group of Lindy Hop fans. It was a special night. He could still swing it on the dance floor. An American Icon!
A Man who will be Truely Missed.
Thanks for posting this video.
A beautiful tribute to a beautiful man. Thanks for your hard work creating it.
I can't believe he died! He'll be so missed!!
RIP Frankie Manning 1914-2009!
A heartwarming tribute - thank you!
A very touching video. Thank you for making it.
I miss you Frankie.
inspiration is the key word
We will miss him!
The only ones I have seen dancers doing Lindy Hop aerials were on youtube because these were dancers in the 30's and 40"s. In the '50's its the Boogie Woogie. But some told me this was a swing revised in Germany after WWII. I wonder if this is true.
But looking at Frankie and Frieda- no one can duplicate these moves. They were unique in their craft.
Frankie, we'll see you at the Savoy!
