This is a comprehensive guide to over one hundred and fifty of Fred Astaire's solo and partnered dances compiled from his thirty-one Hollywood musical comedy films produced between 1933 and 1968, his four television specials and his television appearances on The Hollywood Palace and Bob Hope Presents the Chrysler Theatre which cover the period from 1958 to 1968.

He then unofficially retired- until NBC television producer Bud Yorkin brought him back.

This stunning hour-long variety show was done live, in color, and basically illustrated, in Astaire's own words, a 'dance bash.
