2. What a memory. Thanks for sharing!

He did more than anyone to revive interest in tango as a dance (and to a lesser extent as music), long after its heyday in the 1920s.

He also helped change the image most people had of it as a kind of stiff-armed waltz - though of course, most Argentines just dance it in a soulful, languid sashay.
