The best recorded music? Have you heard of The English Contra Dance Band? They have a CD out with 11 tracks. All tracks are 11 times through the dance, except for 2 tracks which are 7 times through for a square dance. Wonderful fiddling by Linda Game and with Gareth Kiddier thumping out the rhythm. Great music for contra dancing! http://www.myspace.com/englishcontradanceband
