Square dance, sometimes called square dancing, came to America with English settlers in the 1700s. A dance is usually composed of four couples but can be expanded into larger groupings. Dances are directed by a caller who provides spoken instructions for each dance. Square dance experienced a revival in the mid-20th century. On this recording, veteran square dance caller Piute Pete calls nine dances. Among the most well-known traditional songs and dances heard here are “B-I-N-G-O” and “Shoo Fly.” Spoken dance instructions, along with illustrated instructions for each dance, are included in the liner notes.
