Scene from a movie called Tap with some of the biggest tap legends (Gregory Hines, Savion Glover, Sammy Davis, Jr., Jimmy Slide, Bunny Briggs, there are more) that have ever lived: https://youtu.be/OsK8dWjDi_E
On a side note, reading Sammy Davis, Jr.'s autobiography was one of the most moving reads I've had. He discussed what he experienced before, during, and after the Civil Rights movement. Very powerful stuff.
