Dancing is a part of life its one of the thrills of young America........................ etc. OK lets put the case into perspective.
Many moons ago along with a strict dress code, lifestyle, attitude, record collection etc, most people on the scene wanted to be respected as
"Good Dancers". Possibly the first "dancin' superstar" was Frank Booper New from Widnes. Promotors, seeing an angle on upping the attendences put on the competitions. The one I remember best was the one @ Whitchurch Civic all dayer, Booper lost that day but was still regarded as a Hero by the crowd. Fast forward to now & most aspects of the scene then, are no longer relevent, (except good records). Things change people move on no one wants Dancin' Comps. However I still see a few people trying to look like 60's Mods. and as the style thing has never died off, will Dancin' Comps be resureccted as well ?
Best Regards to all Ritchie.
