Reviews Keith Loria, on theatermania.com, called the show “a tender glimpse into the Hineses’ rise to fame and a touching tribute to a brother.” Benjamin Tomchik wrote in Broadway World, that the show “seems determined not only to love the audience, but to entertain them, and it succeeds at doing just that! While Tappin' Thru Life does have some flaws, it's hard to find anyone who isn't won over by Hines showmanship, humor, timing and above all else, talent.” In The Washington Post, Nelson Pressley wrote, “’Tappin’ is basically a breezy, personable concert. The show doesn’t flinch from hard-core nostalgia; the heart-on-his-sleeve Hines is too sentimental for that. It’s frankly schmaltzy, and it’s barely written — it zips through selected moments of Hines’s life, creating a mood more than telling a story. it’s a pleasure to be in the company of a shameless, ebullient vaudeville heart.” Maurice Hines Is .

  • The Recordings
    Appendix: The Recordings These are the URLs of the original locations where I found the recordings used in this book. Those without a URL came from a cassette tape, LP or CD in my personal collection, or from now-defunct YouTube or Grooveshark web pages. I had many of the other recordings in my collection already, but searched for online sources to allow the reader to hear what I heard when writing the book. Naturally, these posted “videos” will disappear over time, although most of them then re- appear six months or a year later with a new URL. If you can’t find an alternate location, send me an e-mail and let me know. In the meantime, I have provided low-level mp3 files of the tracks that are not available or that I have modified in pitch or speed in private listening vaults where they can be heard. This way, the entire book can be verified by listening to the same re- cordings and works that I heard. For locations of these private sound vaults, please e-mail me and I will send you the links.

We would like to give a special shout out to the Friends of the Veterans Memorial Senior Center for securing the funding from the Sequoia Health Care District in order to assist the City of Redwood City for the cost of the free lunch program. This is truly the definition of a community partnership! The photo on the cover was taken looking west over the Senior Center at 2:50 pm on September 9th, 2020. It was so dark and eerie that day due to the wildfires. As you can see even the outdoor lighting on the building was on during the middle of the day! Hopefully we won’t see many days like that anymore. In this issue of the Sentinel we have included some Funny songs, an I Spy game and some upcoming community events. There is a page if you would like to start a new Pen pal to exchange letters. Also, we have taken some pictured of friends that just wanted to say hi! We hope you enjoy reading the Sentinel and if you ever need to talk with us here at the senior center, we are only a phone call away, 650-780-7270.
