I finally compiled the list's of music you sent that you considered your favorites from all time into a single list. It's not in any particular order at this time, and I know it's missing some classics as well as what I will call "new classics". Here's the list of what you've sent so far. Please continue to send in your favorites from your play list's or just fill in the gaps you feel others have left out. Judging from the responses so far there's plenty more to to add to this list. The list will be continually updated and the top songs will be determined later by your choices based on this list.
One of the stepping communities foremost promoters, Lana Reid from Los Angeles (Steppin' to Kings Dream) read The State of Stepping 2008 article and  said in her newsletter, "In the article he made the statement "Entirely too much emphasis is concentrated toward "preaching to the converted" and I was saying to myself "YES...so I’m not crazy!".  Well, from one "not crazy" to another, thanks for the notice. Hopefully by the time I write "the state of stepping" article in 2009 there will be many  more "not crazy" promoters.
Hopefully steppers in Houston fared well through the devastation brought by hurricane Ike. My heart goes out to all who have lost all in this natural disaster. Perhaps it's time to get a few stepping for hurricane relief charity affairs going across the country.
Of course it's WLSC week so I couldn't help to mention you can buy tickets both online and in select locations, just

Support the History of Stepping Project

Please copy the message below and send it on to as many steppers as you can please!

This is an open message to ALL steppers. Please share it with as many people as possible.

 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.

Thank You for your time!
