While I'm boring everyone silly with posts about Tango I thought that the following links might be of interest to a few of you.

Tango Terminology
ToDo Tango - fab Argentinean site
cyber-tango - links & general info
Ernesto's Tango Page - links
Mike Lavocah's site - excellent source of Tango music
National Geographic video about Tango
Sundry video clips of Tango
Eduardo Bozzo's classes in Bristol
My local Tango scene in Devon - home of the wonderful "Tango Mango"!
Tango West - Bristol etc.
Edinburgh Tango Society
Radio Tango - click on the link from the Radio Cubik home page
La 2x4 - Tango radio station in Buenos Aires that lots of taxi drivers listen to!
The Mansion Dandi Royal - stay here if you visit Buenos Aires
Tango Valley - brilliant Tango holidays in the South of France

I hope they are useful!

Thank you

Your descriptions of tango have shifted from unbound enthusiasm to you wouldn't understand...

Thank you for this

Some of the video clips have reconfirmed the reasons why I'm putting myself through the agony of learning this amazing dance

It's passionate, emotion provoking stuff, isn't it...woooooooo

I've got a foul cough and have run out of chocolate so I was sitting here feeling yuk and sorry for myself until I connected to Radio Tango and followed some Tango links. I've cheered up after reading some of: Close Embrace - Articles. The "Ask Maleva: Tango Advice Column" is great! Some really good stuff and some funny stuff as well.

I particularly liked "The Beginner's Crush" - shame I've never been the object of one!

I just found another useful link:

http://tango.smoothouse.com/dance/

It's a Tango Wiki, and it's got a lot of useful information about steps - for example, planeos

This one is good for Bristol area - and some fab videos as a bonus. Check out the "Hermanos Macano" one in particular; great fun! You've got vals from Julio & Corina, milonga from Javier Rodriguez & Geraldine Rojas, fantasia from Claudia & Esteban plus Puppy & Gavito (both sadly now dead - it was Gavito's last public performance, when he was a very sick man and had lost a lot of his strength) representing the "old guard". I could watch Geraldine for ever - her dancing, particulary the way she actively contributes to the dance, is an inspiration.

I promised to send all my tango links to a guy I met at Southport so I extracted all the URLs to a .txt file. I've emailed it to him but it occurred to me that some folk on here might find them useful as well so I've attached the file.

Some you will have, a couple might be dead but finding out what lies behind each might pass an idle hour: have fun!
