Re: [Callers] Calling to Recorded Music Resource List

* All recordings (& books) produced by New England Dancing Masters (Peter & Mary Alice Amidon, Andy Davis, Mary Cay Brass & many other fine musicians including Becky Tracy, Keith Murphy, Sam & Stefan Amidon & Thomas Bartlett) http://www.dancingmasters.com/ *Sweets of May & White Mountain Reel - recordings (& books) by Dudley Laufman These have recently been combined into a single volume which looks quite terrific http://laufman.org/ * Recordings by musicians local to my area (or the area of the gig) and inspiring at least one on-mic comment about these talented musicians in the neighborhood. * I also have used KGB's Volga Notions (because the cd jacket claims in Russian, "Danceable but no chestnuts"). For SPECIFIC Tunes/Songs required for a specific dance: * New England Chestnuts by Rodney & Randy Miller two cd re-release available at Great Meadow Music http://www.greatmeadowmusic.com/ * Lissa Schneckenburger's gorgeous new cd, Dance, is almost all chestnuts. http://lissafiddle.com/ * Lloyd Shaw Foundation Amazing resource, zillions of recordings & cue sheets and more. They set up a download site for you, once you request your recordings. http://lloydshaw.org/Catalogue/CatHome.htm * I recently found Amazon Music Downloads very useful -Chrissy Fowler Belfast, ME
