Kelsey,

Neither sequence rings a bell, but others on this list have more
encyclopedic collections and may answer more fully.

I do wonder about Delish. It appears the B2 swing happens on the gent's
side, and presumably so does the B1 swing. But B1 starts with partners
across the set from one another, and the description just says balance the
ring, partner swing. So does the gent bring his partner to his side?
Without explicit direction, the swing might happen in the middle of the
set, or indeed on the lady's side (excepting that neither would put dancers
in place for the B2). Is there something I'm not picturing?

Wandering Soul looks fun -- I may try it out at my next contra gig.
