A quick but insightful clip of Chester Whitmore revealing the overlooked legacy of Willie Covan, a trailblazer in tap dance history. Just a few seconds, but enough to spark curiosity about the incredible contributions of this unsung hero. Dig more and keep his legacy alive!🌿

[tani-b-art]

Isn’t it fascinating how Black American creation can never just stand alone? Everything we create always gets the “co-created” treatment. From rap, to hip hop, to Black vernacular, breakdancing, country, rock, tap dancing and more. Literally everything we originate always magically & conveniently gets the conjecture/melting pot—other groups were also involved revisionist connection and it’s a mystifying phenomenon.

I recently got a comment (which that person ended up deleting) on one of my tap dancing posts that basically said that the Irish invented tap dancing when they immigrated here as indentured servants by way of Irish clogging and only because of the melting pot of Black American culture and some of our dance styles mixing with Irish clogging did all this melting help to form the dance style that is tap.

So….

“Tap dance is one of few dance styles uniquely indigenous to America, dating back as early as the 1500s. While enslaved people were taken from Africa to the Americas through what was called the “middle passage,” they danced to the music of upturned buckets and other objects found on the ships. In the 1700s and 1800s, enslaved Africans performed African percussive dances that transformed into new African American styles, such as the Juba, where dancers moved in a circle, shuffled their feet and clapped rhythmically. This dancing is important because it allowed enslaved people to remain connected to their culture and cope with the conditions they faced in America. *During the same time period, many Irish Americans were living as indentured servants, and historians believe they exchanged dancing styles in the early 1600s on American plantations. The style of the hybridized African percussive dances and Irish clogging became known as “jigging” by the 1800s.

The history of tap dance took a turn in the 1800s, and minstrel shows became the main spectacle of tapping. Minstrel shows were a form of racist entertainment in which white performers would dress up in blackface and depict Black stereotypes in the form of songs, jokes and dances for an audience. Although the minstrel shows were performed mostly by white impersonators, ^a few Black dancers such as William Henry Lane maintained some integrity to the African American origins of tap dancing through the shows. After the Civil War, more African Americans had access to the minstrel show and a heavier focus was put on the technique of tap dancing, and new steps emerged.”

[*the red bolded is what I’m talking about]

[^is precisely what I said]

Also, I’m no one’s tap dance historian but I’ve been researching.

Differences between Clogging and Tap Dancing. (below is from a blog. not my words)

Clog Dancing vs. Tap Dancing: Contrasts in Style and Technique, both have beginnings in America, but they later advanced differently.

Clog dancing is noticeable among Irish step dancers. In clog dance, the dancer wears clogs or wooden-soled shoes that stress the rhythm of their feet while keeping a straight face.

Tap dancers are usually solo dancers; although this dance form is more fun with a partner, most dancers’ tap dance alone. On the other hand, clog dancers dance in groups. They have an arrangement with each dancer in a straight line, all doing the same movements and making the same sounds with their feet at the same time.

Clog dancers make the most sounds with their heels. They make different motions with their bodies going up and down, primarily heavy movements that constitute a significant difference between clog dancing and tap dancing. On the flip side, tap dancers rarely make heavy movements. Their feet movements are light and move their bodies to the tempo and melodies of music instead of the beats.

Clog dancers do not have taps in their shoes because they make most of their leather and velvet shoes with rigid soles made of wood. Whereas in clog dancing, your shoes are buck taps with a metal that enables the clogger to open their toe tips.

Another difference between clog dancing and tap dancing is that clogging is more flat-footed. Jumps are not so frequent in clog dancing. Whereas In tap dancing, dancers use the ball of their heels.

While tap dancing might have similarities to clogging, their styles are pretty different from one another. Tap dancers have just one tap on their heels and another on the toe, unlike clog dancers. Their shoes can change the sounds you hear when you tap them. There are little tricks that clutch the shoe fastener in place when you loosen or tighten them.

Conclusion

Irrespective of whatever style of dance you choose, whether clogging or tapping, they all have a unique history and significant features that differentiate them from each other.

=============================

I would 100% say the immigrating Irish came here and saw what Black Americans were already doing and then imitated and copied what they saw and then fashioned their clogging after it that subsequently created a subset — if we’re going to go with this “melting pot” and say the Irish and anyone else besides Black Americans fused their dance styles to create tap.

Black Americans enslaved in America had an ethnogenesis which can be described as “the historical and contemporary emergence of a group of people who define themselves in relation to a common socio-cultural and historical heritage…the process by which a group of people become ethnically distinct.” In this ethnogenesis, ours was the transformation form—a group may change so significantly over time that it eventually forms a new ethnic group. Where our ancestors created new culture(s) (and traditions) that was developed from nothing — barely any remembrance of any African traditions because all was literally forced out of our memory bank and stripped from us. Majority of our ancestors (there is evidence of many Black [swarthy], as described, people already here in what is now America before slavery) were transported here through the transatlantic slave trade to this country that became America and formed all things new. As Nikole Hannah-Jones said, “And although they tried to break our ancestors, to erase our identities, we forged a new culture of our own, giving birth to ourselves….We are a people who were born on the water. We were born in the middle passage and we created, out of the most hellish situation, our own original culture.”

Oh, and this melting pot metaphor. As the late, great Toni Morrison said:

All this to say, tap dance (and one of its many children, breakdancing) is uniquely Black American made.

Do you see banana man Hopping over on the white hot sand Here he come with some for me Freshly taken from banana tree (one, two, three, four)

Banana man me want a tan Give me double on the bonus one Give me more for all me friends This banana flow never end

Do you want a banana? Peel it down and go mm mm mm mm Do you want a banana? This banana for you

Tonight we dance around the flame Then we get to play the spirit game Spirit names we shout out loud Shake the thunder from the spirit cloud All the songbirds in the tree Chant a tune to let the spirits free Then we see them in the night Spirits jumpin' by the fire light

Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana) Peel it down and go mm mm mm mm Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana) This banana for you

Look you your too uptight you know You can laugh and kick it back and go (we) But without a rhythm or a rhyme You do not banana all the time Fly away from city on the run Try to make a little fun

Look you come to the bungalow African't you tell me don't you so Don't you love the bumping of the drum Make you shake until the bum go numb Let the bungo play you 'til you drop This banana never stop (never stop, never stop)

Forget all your troubles and go with the flow Forget about whatever you may never know Like whether whatever you are doing is whatever you should And whether anything you do is every really any good And then forget about banana when it sticks in your throat And when they make you want to bellow but your stuck in a choke And you forget about the yell from the colorful men That'll make you take another and make a mock of your plan

Bungale bungalo make up your mind and tell me no umm shh

Well it's nine o'clock and it's getting dark And the sun is falling from the sky I've never left so early and you may wonder why

Tomorrow morning on the plane No banana make you go insane Floating back to busy town No banana make you want to frown

Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana?) Peel it down and go mm mm mm mm Do you want a banana? This banana for you @sk3tchyy42

I can’t fucking stop being utterly transfixed by this gif I think this is how cocomelon babies feel when they see dancing strawberries

Character Actor

Parley Edward Baer (August 5, 1914 – November 22, 2002) Actor in radio and later in television and film. Despite dozens of appearances in television series and theatrical films, he remains best known as the original "Chester" in the radio version of Gunsmoke, and as the Mayor of Mayberry (Roy Stoner) in The Andy Griffith Show.

As an on-camera performer, Baer was recognizable by his distinctive voice, his paunchy appearance, and his balding head. Often he portrayed fussy, bossy, and/or obstinate officials or neighbors. Extended television roles included blustering, by-the-book Mayor Stoner on The Andy Griffith Show, the neighbor Darby on The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, frequent guest appearances on The Addams Family as insurance man and city commissioner Arthur J. Henson, and in the late 1990s, Miles Dugan on The Young and the Restless. He also appeared as a telephone executive on Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.

Baer guest-starred in the 1950s on NBC's The Dennis Day Show and It's a Great Life, on CBS's Hey, Jeannie!, on ABC's The Law and Mr. Jones with James Whitmore, on the syndicated crime drama Johnny Midnight with Edmond O'Brien, and on the NBC children's western series, Fury with Peter Graves and Bobby Diamond. He made six guest appearances on Perry Mason during the last five seasons of the CBS legal drama, including the role of Edward Farraday in the 1962 episode, "The Case of the Captain's Coins," and Willard Hupp in the 1963 episode, "The Case of the Bouncing Boomerang".

He also appeared on the ABC sitcom Harrigan and Son, on the ABC/Warner Bros. crime drama, The Roaring 20s, on NBC's crime drama Dan Raven starring Skip Homeier, and on the NBC family drama, National Velvet. Baer was cast twice on Walter Brennan's sitcom, The Real McCoys. He also guest-starred on the CBS sitcoms Dennis the Menace with Jay North, The Tom Ewell Show with Tom Ewell, and Angel, starring Annie Fargé. In the latter, he carried the lead as Dr. Mathews in the single episode "The Dentist", with Maudie Prickett as his dental secretary.

In 1961, Baer guest-starred on Marilyn Maxwell's short-lived ABC drama series, Bus Stop. On April 13, 1962, he appeared, along with Frank Ferguson and Royal Dano in ABC's crime drama Target: The Corruptors in the episode "Journey into Mourning".

In 1963, Baer appeared with Charles Aidman and Karl Swenson in the three-part episode "Security Risk", a story of international blackmail and intrigue, on the CBS anthology series, GE True, hosted by Jack Webb.

In 1964, Baer was cast as a sheriff in an episode of Mickey Rooney's short-lived Mickey sitcom, and as a scientist in an Outer Limits episode, "Behold, Eck!" He was seen in four episodes of Hogan's Heroes and eight episodes of Bewitched in various roles as advertising clients of McMann and Tate.

Baer was cast as Horace Greeley, who came to Colorado in 1859 in the Pikes Peak Gold Rush, in the 1965 episode "The Great Turkey War" of the syndicated series, Death Valley Days.

In 1967, Baer appeared as General Whitfield on the I Dream of Jeannie episode, "Fly Me to the Moon".

Baer made two appearances on Petticoat Junction. In the 1966 episode, "Jury at the Shady Rest", he was Bailiff Tucker. Then, in the 1969 episode, "The Glen Tinker Caper", he was Judge Madison.

Later guest appearances included Three for the Road, Three's Company (as a cooking competition judge), The San Pedro Beach Bums, The A-Team, Star Trek: Voyager, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, The Dukes of Hazzard, Night Court, Newhart, Little House on the Prairie, The Golden Girls, Hazel, and Mad About You. He also played the role of the minister who married J. R. and Sue Ellen Ewing for their second marriage on Dallas. He also made guest appearances on F Troop.

Some 10 years earlier, Baer played a closet racist in a Christmas episode of Bewitched. The episode "Sisters at Heart" aired on ABC on December 24, 1970, in which he played the role of Mr. Brockway, the owner of a toy-manufacturing firm.  (Wikipedia)
