Choreographers Note: Good old Bluegrass!, music doesn't get much more country than

this I guess, so you'll either like it or hate it - hope it's the former! It is from

The Grass is Blue CD which I tracked down after hearing the song on my car radio a few

months back and is also on my Compilation No.5.

This was intended as an easy light hearted dance for my beginners and to me has a

clogging feel, so emphasis should be on all the struts to really slap the toe (or

heel) down on the 2nd beat. Almost all the 'Hold' steps can be turned into 'heel

struts' to add to this feel, especially on the turns - do what feels R to you and have

fun.
