A new clip of dance prodigy Gavin Morales: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMzPbQ82gGU

I'm often amazed by how good "our" Billys are at dancing, but this guy really takes it to a whole other level. Started at 7 and is perfect already. Simply amazing!

A simple 30 second ad that might not have been made a generation or two ago:

He has the shimmy to a 't'!

The early 1980s was an amazing time in which to live, particularly if one lived it on both sides of the pond, as I did.

Thatcher....Reagan.....the miners' strike.....and the devastation of workers' jobs in the US and the UK. Wherever profit, jealousy or social enmity could flourish, it did. Things moved so fast that we could hardly keep up....but we can look back on those times, and try to understand what was going on.

In any event, while The Clash was performing London's Calling and Arthur Scargill was conspiring to let his miners down, the US had its own social conscience of the working man in Billy Joel (who would become a great friend and co-performer with Elton John). His 1982 epic song Allentown describes the devastation brought about by Reaganomics on a quintessentail Pennsylvania steel town in that state's coal mining region.....the parallels with Co Durham and Consett (steel) are manifold:

Enjoy this classic (which I think should be the genesis of a great Broadway musical by Billy Joel):
