As a side note, a guy from that era whom I've always gotten a kick out of watching is Jimmy Cagney.

Cagney was a great song and dance man. I agree. So was the kid Mickey Rooney.

As another side note, I would put Prince ahead of Michael Jackson.

This is a ridiculous statement. Jackson in his prime may not have been in the same league as Kelly and Astaire but he was at least in the same league as O'Connor, Bolger (who played the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz), and yes, Cagney.
