New york times: Dance in Chicago: Skating with James Brown's Style

In Chicago, J.B.-style skaters turn the roller rink into a dance floor, where it's all “about the groove.”

Takeaway: After this shoot I became obsessed with roller skating. I went out and purchased a pair of skates the following week and started skating all the time. For years I brought my skates on the road while traveling on shoots and tried to find rinks with adult nights to skate at. Still one of my all-time favorite shoots.
