Volume 108: Tango King

This was an interesting find in my dad’s collection. When I saw the word Tango I think I immediately flashed back to one Bond film or another thinking about the precise movements and the long stemmed rose in the woman’s teeth. So get ready to learn that if you can walk you can do this dance in Volume 108: Tango King.

Poor Gigolo
Just a Gigolo" is a popular song, adapted by Irving Caesar into English in 1929 from the Austrian tango "Schöner Gigolo, armer Gigolo", composed in 1928 in Vienna by Leonello Casucci to lyrics written in 1924 by Julius Brammer. Of course I've played the popular Louis Prima version on this show and most of you are familiar with the 1985 version from David Lee Roth.
