I love Jimmy Cagny although I probably spelled his name wrong. He could dance but isn't remembered for it...Yankee Doodle Dandy.

That's Mr.Bill "Bojangles" Robinson ;)!!! And yes, he was the Tap King.The modern era would not have a Savion Glover (see *Bring on da Funk, Bring on da noise* and the original *Tap Dance Kid* ) without him.

I love the Musicals but.... Give me Film Noir every time. We had it all, Just like BOGEY and BACALL... and Edward G. Robinson, Jimmy Stewart, Ronald Regan (when he was still an actor), Gloria Graham, Virginia Mayo and Veronica Lake (the IT Girl)
