Thank you, Spaw. Agree will never establish a Top Number. I wouldn't even like to try & decide which was Busby Berkeley's best-ever sequence, or Judy Garland's or Bing Crosby's or Frank Sinatra's best song, or Fred Astaire's best dance & whether it was better than any of Gene Kelly's...

Must mention here, tho — next time you watch the crap-game-in-sewer sequence in Guys&Dolls, notice the guy in the big green fedora hat — that is my cousin Daniel Mayer, nephew of Louis B who was my grandfather's 1st cousin so mine 2ce removed. Danny came over here every year with Garland's company on her annual visit to the Dominion Tottenham Ct Rd; was there for the one she died. A couple of years before he had made contact & we all had tea together at my grandmother's. If you want to know why my Cal cousins spell it that bit different [Mayer while I am Myer] — why, becoz Americans can't spell of course - why else!!!
