Can anybody point me to a source?

One is Hotpoint Special, which I think may be by Rick Mohr, and again there's a band by that name. Criss-Cross Hey by Bob Isaacs is another.

In the dance below, the allemandes in the B1 are each 1/2, correct? And the Becket progression is to the right (counter clockwise)? Thanks for sharing the dance; such a creative way to progress!

However, I wrote this for Dance Flurry 2009, when I had the pleasure of calling there with Giant Robot. The session was titled "1,2,3,4 Swings". I would love to know if this is the dance in question! warmly, Linda Giant Robot Dance by Linda Leslie Contra/Becket-CW/Dbl-Prog/Easy A1 ----------- Circle left three-quarters Pass through Next Neighbor do si do A2 ----------- Same Neighbor B & S B1 ----------- Long lines forward and back NEXT neighbor swing B2 ----------- Give & Take to the Gent?s side On Jul 9, 2013, at 4:21 PM, Kalia Kliban wrote: ------------------------------ Message: 6 Date: Tue, 09 Jul 2013 16:16:55 -0700 From: Kalia Kliban &lt;kalia(a)sbcglobal.net&gt; To: Caller's discussion list &lt;callers(a)sharedweight.net&gt; Subject: Re: [Callers] Giant Robot Dance Message-ID: &lt;51DC99E7.2050400(a)sbcglobal.net&gt; Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252; format=flowed On 7/9/2013 3:42 PM, Linda Leslie wrote: I suspect it is, since the one useful note I have aside from the name is that there were 2 neighbor swings.

Message-ID: &lt;51DC9B03.7000106(a)mindspring.com&gt; Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Yes, the B1 allemandes are each 1/2 -- a swing thru in MWSD parlance. Thanks for the correction on the name. I don't have the direction of the progression written down (but should). Based on my walking it through with myself, though, it is indeed to the right.
