Buckles... what was it you and Bill Strong said about staying busy just announcing final curtains? I love checking your blog, but it's always hard to see who's next!; 15 December, 2009 17:12

The two beauties on either side of Dale are Tracy Kim Mayo and Darlene Williams(Dicker) who were part of the original, never duplicated Vargett's.

Jack Ryan said...: Cliff told me, "The Vargettes will put the Rockettes to shame."

Clifford never, ever thought small. Which was, of course, a great part of his charm.

Chic Silber said...: Although it is widely believed

that the "Rockettes" were named

for Rockefeller Center the home

of Radio City Music Hall but in

actuality they were created as

"The Roxyettes" by Samuel "Roxy"

Rothafeld and later became the

"Rockettes" for his Roxy Theater

that opened 5 years before he

opened Radio City and brought

the "Rockettes" with him; 15 December, 2009 22:55
