Shortened spelling of pompadour. A hairstyle popular amongst rockabilly and greaser males.
The hair is dressed with grease and combed back from the forehead and also up so that some height is gained.
Females may also have a similar style coupled with a ponytail but pins and grips are used in place of grease.

The original form of Lindy Hop, the partner dance that accompanies swing jazz.
So named because the pioneers of the dance, such as Frankie Manning and Whitey's Lindy Hoppers, were regular dancers at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem.

Those cats are crouching too low for Hollywood style, they must be doing Savoy style. They're really swingin'!
