I have a few swing clips on my site at www.tcswing.com

The direct link is: {non working url removed}
There are some old video clips shot with my old Sony Mavica which are a minute or less. Plus, I have better stuff once I got my digital camcorder. There are full length shots of competitions from ALHC and from our local dance contests.

Hope you enjoy them!

Doug Silton also runs a move of the week clip. Sometimes its instructional, sometimes its just a demo. Either way, its worth checking out.

MoveOfTheWeek

Its currently having some technical problems, but the archive of moves is working.

There is a Video clips section at (www.grenobleswing.com) by Vinnie (Vincent Devin) (Grenoble is a town in France), this is a good selection that I enjoyed watching.

There is also a Video clips section at All Swing (sorry URL removed as no longer online) available after a free registration), as well as a web forum (french, english, world competition corner) where you can find Vinnie and others talking.

I'm looking for a couple video clips, any ideas?

First is the Gap commercial - I can't believe I've never seen it...

And second is any clip of Earl "Snake Hips" Tucker. I found one where he's doing lindy with Billie Holiday (http://artsedge.kennedy-center.org/exploring/harlem/mplyr/ellington_v_symph.html), but I was hoping for something that showcased his specialty a little more.

The Gap commercial can be found here. I can't actually remember it ever being on tv...

Should read "with Billie Holiday singing the blues" but for some reason I can't edit this post Anyhoo, I misread the caption on the site and just thought I should correct myself here.

Thanks for the GAP clip! I had imagined something completely different in my mind, but this is quite groovey.

Oh yeah! The gap clip! Cool! You know, that commercial back in '98 was what got me to try dancing in the first place. I'd never swing danced until after I saw that commercial and I probably never would've either. That commercial changed my life! I'll have to download it when I get home for nostalia's sake.

Hmmm... That's funny. I don't remember that being the music to it. It doesn't feel like it fits. I'll bet they went through different iterations with different music...
