Re: [Callers] Yet more mystery dances!
Thanks for the titles, Linda. There is a correction on one of the dances: > > West by Mid-West by Carol Ormand > 3) (improper) > A1: neighbor balance and swing > A2: pass the ocean, balance; neighbor alle R 1/2, men alle L 1/2 > B1: partner gypsy; partner swing > B2: circle L 3/4; pass through, next neighbor do-si-do > In her book The Lizard Research Institute, Carol gives the A2 as A2. Long lines forward and back Pass the ocean, neighbor alle R 1/2, men alle L 1/2 There is no wave balance after passing the ocean. Not only is the timing better, Carol is copying the pass the ocean-swing through commonly seen in MWSD - Bob

Re: [Callers] Yet more mystery dances!
I have put titles and authors before all of the dances. And yet another plu for Caller's Companion! The program makes it very, very easy to identify dances. I don't have the two dances in my collection that you mention.
