Forbidden Fruit (Band Gr. 4)

Strange as it may seem, there was a time, in the United States, when certain dance forms were considered "sinful and depraved." Two of the most notorious dances of that time were rags and tangos. While it is true, that both of these dances were the products of a demimonde of unrivaled promiscuity and debauchery, with the passing of time, their sinfulness now only seems quaint and naive. However, what does remain, even to this day, is the power of their infectious energy and charm.
