Here Billboard magazine has been celebrating it's 50th anniversary this year
and they rolled the top 100 songs from their hot
100 charts dating back to the chart's beginnings in 1958. It got me
to wondering what songs do you think should be on a list of the top 5
(or even 10) steppers songs of all time? After I posted this
yesterday, I thought about it some more and I think I may
have phrased it incorrectly when I asked for your submissions. We need
to know what are your favorite stepping songs. They can be from any era,
be it old skool straight up stepping songs, to new skool music you love
to step to. (Now imagine me using my best Ronco infomercial voice) But
wait! There's more! If you're a walker, what are your favorite walking
tunes? If you love to dance trio, what are your favorite songs to trio
to?
I realize many of you may not know of 5 or 10 songs by name or
even the artist names for that matter, so If you know the name of a song
or two and the artist names, that would be cool. I know some music
myself and have a few steppers DJ friends who will help if I need to
ask.
Send SteppersUSA your list of your favorite steppers songs of all time. I'll compile
a list of those songs and publish that list. I might even put together a
poll for everyone to create a "final ranking" like Billboard
did. If you have a link to the You Tube video that accompanied the song,
be sure to include that.
Send SteppersUSA an email with
your list.

As many of you may already know I started a new web
site for the benefit of the greater steppers community. It's called
History of Stepping Project. I wish to encourage you to add your
knowledge to the timeline. If you know anything about stepping, please
share this with the public on this site. We are looking for all
information related to stepping from it's beginnings to the present. The
information literally includes everything from clubs and bars which held
steppers sets and parties to contests and the participants and results,
to when different steppers organizations and classes started, who the
instructors were and are; Musical bands, and artists, DJ's, radio and
television personalities, Movies, videos, and photos… literally
everything stepping.
Creating an accurate historic timeline will go a long
way toward helping the community take the next step in its logical
progression as it continues to grow nationwide and will become a
valuable resource for all in the future.
Your input, your knowledge and your effort have made the dance what it
is today. Don't you feel your place (and your organization's) in the
timeline is well deserved? I do!
Please send an email to your members or readers inviting them to
participate. Place a link on your web site also please. All support is
appreciated!
The effort requires more than just posting the
information. The need for fact checkers, people willing to do some
research exists in this important ongoing project. Just a few minutes a
week can make a difference.
