This guy was amazing. He went on to a great career and a rather sane life.
Getting Right Down to the Nitty Gritty…with Bobby Banas!
A certain clip on YouTube recently went extremely viral on the Internet, showing a sextette of dancers in 1964 on Judy Garland’s weekly CBS Sunday night program engaging in an energetic routine to the novelty song “The Nitty Gritty,” as voiced by Shirley Ellis (also well-known for her recording of “The Name Game”). Featured front and center was a young male dancer, whose dark hair and black button eyes made him an immediate standout, aside from his impeccable rhythm and the fact that he was tearing into it like his last meal. His name turns out to be Bobby Banas, and besides how brilliant he was in that particular performance, before and after that he’d already made featured appearances in such films as West Side Story, The Unsinkable Molly Brown and as one of the chimney sweeps in Mary Poppins, besides being known as the boy who kissed Marilyn Monroe in Let’s Make Love and a plethora of television appearances, which included a famous episode of Get Smart! He’d also made his first initial click in Peter Pan on Broadway with Mary Martin and the subsequent television version on NBC. Banas later became a much-desired choreographer as well as dance teacher in the Los Angeles area, and counted numerous notable names among his students. He’s mostly retired now from the world of terpsichore, but occupies his time as a Rosarian (an expert on rose blossoms). And The Andrew Martin Report couldn’t be more thrilled that the gentleman, now in his very early eighties, found the time to grant us an interview: themartinreport.wordpress.com/2013/12/22/getting-right-down-to-the-nitty-gritty-with-bobby-banas/

As a young lad in the 1960's I wasn't just nutzo over Linda Ronstadt. This woman was the Ann Margaret for many of the Boomers.
This is one of my favorite clips of the one and only Joey Heatherton. Joey could dance like Linda could sing. Boy could she dance!
Dig that car. From 1973:
Joey Heatherton sings "The Road I Took To You (Pieces)" - "Old Faithful" (1973)
www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2D6E6716A8870D9AJoey's decline coincided with Linda's rise. I believe had she had found her "Peter Asher" or "John Boylan" she might have had a bigger career in music.

I don't care what anyone says. There was some great music coming out of Disco aka Dance music.
It wasn't just a dance. It was a movement:
The Secret Disco Revolution - Full Documentary on the Disco Era

The Joy of Disco - The Joy of Disco
When Disco Ruled The World (DISCO DocuMENTARY)

Rob, I love disco! Here are some more dance videos (the one from India was edited and used behind the opening credits of the film "Ghost World" ) --
Mihail Baryshnikov performing "One" from "A Chorus Line" from the ABC-TV special "Baryshnikov on Broadway" --
And the opening number from "A Chorus Line" from the 1976 Tony Awards --
From 1980's "A Day in Hollywood/"A Night in the Ukraine" featuring David Garrison who later was in the cast of "Married With Children," here is "The Production Code" --
From 1983's "My One and Only," the closing number of this musical of Gershwin songs was "Kickin' the Clouds Away" -- a great dance number staged by the show's star Tommy Tune. Here at the opening of the 1984 Tony Awards --
And, well, just because ...
