Rich Sbardella sent a link to a simple longways dance that usually uses "Montego Bay" as the music. I first saw it at an English country dance, introduced as a "colonial" dance. When the music started (Montego Bay), the caller then noted that the "colony" was Jamaica. Worth a laugh, or at least a chuckle.
