Jerry Ames: There's a lot of young people into tap now. The last few years there seems to be a great renaissance of tap dancing and that's a nice thing to see. I like it to be carried on. It's you know, it's the indigenous American art form. You have well, it's actually one of two, jazz music and tap dancing. And during the time when tap was supposedly out, I couldn't understand it, because when a tap dancer got an opportunity to perform, if he was good, invariably the tap act was the one that stopped the show. So, it was very frustrating for a lot of really good dancers during that so-called dead period for tap. It was a very, very bitter time.
