Track listing
The cover of this CD and third book of dances from Gaye Collin (New Zealand) is self-explanatory! The   dances   in   the   book   are   mainly   devised   for   friends   and   family,   with   others   remembering   places visited or simply to teach formations. There   are   12   new   dances   (4   jigs,   4   reels   &   4   strathspeys)   with   the   72-bar   reel   recorded   as   a   medley   as well,   a   Warm-up   March   and   the   CD   finishes   with   Alex   Hodgson   singing   Caledonia.   The   sheet   music   for the   original   lead   tunes   is   printed   in   the   book,   and   a   loose   sheet   includes   Keith   Rose’s   diagrams.   All tracks   are   played   at   a   steady   pace   and   other   than   the   72-bar   Dancing   the   Baby,   all   other   dances   are multiples of 32 bars. The   recording   line-up   is   Marian   Anderson   (accordion),   Graham   Bell   (2 nd    accordion),   Marie   Fielding (fiddle), Isobelle Hodgson (piano & bass) & Max Ketchin (drums), with Alex Hodgson (vocals).
