Day Break

Sometime in the late 70s, early 80s, as a kid growing up in NYC,
I saw some dudes doing a radical form of dance which later became
known as "Break Dancing."

It faded away somewhat in the subsequent years, but once again,
I am seeing a lot of this on the streets in recent years.
Dawn of a new day for break dancing?

Powerful composition for the new era of break dancing. BV
Break dance was big in Australia too in the early 80s, brings back memories.
