Subject: RE: BS: Zorba The Greek - Yolngu Style
Please pass my congratulations to your daughter for her impeccable taste...

Now how about other variations on the Zorba dance? I offer some examples:

Zorba the Grieg (Norwegian)
Zorba the Leek (Welsh)
Sorba the Peke (in canine or Chinese versions)
Zorba the Sheikh (more flowing movements, no raising of legs, specially adapted for sandy dance floors)
Zorba the Geek (techno-syrtaki)
Zorba the Shriek (with "Shout"-type masks)
Zorba the Weak (sitting-down version)
Zorba the Peek or Zorba the Brick (to be danced with specially cut trousers, low-slung at the back)
Zorba the Cheek (for when the trousers drop too much)
Zorba the Streak (finally discarding the trousers)
Zorba the Leak (older man's version)
Zorba the Reek (similar to the above)
