Will Gaines/Sabor Flamenco

Legendary hoofer Will Gaines performs at the Leytonstone Festival, in a double bill with Sabor Flamenco. Gaines was born in Baltimore in 1928 and danced in Cab Calloway's Cotton Club Show in New York in the '50s. He later moved to the UK and at 82 he's still dancing (although sometimes he does it sitting down). One of the few original jazz tap dancers still out there, Gaines is an irrepressibly smiley guy and a pleasure to watch.
