I apparently scribbled this on a card after dancing it, but never got the
name and author. I?m also not completely confident that I wrote it
accurately so am hoping to find a video of it somewhere.
It?s improper.
A1 Star Rt 1/2 way; men drop out and loop behind partner as the women
continue to turn; men rejoin the star and all end up where they started
Repeat
A2 Hey for four (I assume women start by the Left?)
B1 Partner Bal and Swg
B2 Women chain, Left hand star
Thanks for even considering helping me out with this.

The name is Of The Mills by John Gallagher
It can be found here:
http://www.quiteapair.us/calling/acdol/dance/acd_112.html
The A1 should be:
RHS 1/2, gents loop back to fall in behind partner
RHS 1/2, gents loop back at home and face across while the ladies
allemande R 3/4 to face partner
Hey starts passing partner by L shoulder
Is this possibly going to show up in your program saturday? It's a
great dance and it's been a long time since I've gotten to dance it.

Huh? I don't see anything of mine anywhere in the conversations about
swinging and frames etc.

Hello folks,
?
I am considering a recording project?that spans the?gap between modern
club dancing and traditional squares.? From a traditional perspective, what
are the most common singing calls in your area of the country?? What are
the most well received by the dancers?? Are there any that you wish were
available in an instrumental?pre-recorded version??
?
My vision is to use traditional dance figures with traditional music in?a
format?that club? callers would use and that club dancers would enjoy.?
(That typically means 7x64? beats)
?
I have enjoyed Ralph Sweet's recent CD and Bob Dalsemer's two sets,? Some
of those songs would be appropriate for my project as well as songs like
Goodbye My Lady Love, and many others.
?
I'd appreciate any input and/or suggestions.
?

Dave,
I came up with that variation on my own but that doesn't make me the
first to do so.
To me and others the variation is pretty obvious.

CDSS just published Nils Fredland's work "New River Train, Square Dances
from the Collection of Keith Blackmon". There's a lot of 30s-40s-50s
popular songs in that book. Living in the area, I'm certainly biased,
but I would hope some of those might pick up popularity in the rest of
the country.
