I came across and purchased the Portland play along selection 2-CD set --
it's actually intended for musicians, so they can "play along." It
contains 97 different widely-known contra tunes, mostly in sets of two or three.
They are identified by general type, i.e., "New England-Style and Irish
Jigs (4:03) Camp Pleasant Jig/ Sonny Brogan's/ Fair Jenny's Jig or
"Southern
reels, up-tempo (4:11) Jeff City/John Sharp's Hornpipe/Ducks on the Pond.
Since these are intended for learning, they are played at moderate tempo.
(And there's a list by Key and Meter at the back.)
Total time on 2 discs just under 72 minutes.
I have the sound tech put this on for the beginner's lesson, as once
started, it just moves smoothly along, and nothing needs to be cued up or
skipped (waltzes, for instance).
Order thru _www.theportlandcollection.com/songer@portcoll.com_
(http://www.theportlandcollection.com/songer@portcoll.com) , according to the liner
notes.

I'm looking for CDs that could be used for a
contra dance class. The
music should be at a moderate tempo, have long cuts (7 times or
more), have good phrasing and a good beat. Any suggestions?

Hi Chris,
I hope this email finds you well. I'm hoping to get in on the
digest option
of the sharedweight list, rather than the full boat. What shall I
do to make
that happen?
all best,
Kim Roberts

Just a quick reminder to all about how the
digest mode works.
Mailman will
collect the e-mails into a queue and then send the contents of
that queue to
the digest subscribers under two conditions:
1. a day has gone by, or
2. 30kb of data has collected. (about 5-7 messages on average)
Sometimes, when traffic is heavy, there can be more than one
digest e-mail
sent per day. This keeps the digest e-mails from getting too long
and harder
to read. All the traffic on the list should be contained in your
digest
e-mails, the first e-mail of the thread and the replies. Let Seth
and I know
if you discover differently. An e-mail to callers-
owner(a)sharedweight.netwill reach both of us.
On a side note, moderating this list is extremely easy for me. I
do not
review messages before they are posted unless there is something
unusual
about how it was sent (from a non-subscribed address, via BCC,
etc.) and
most of those are from spam engines. The very few times that I had
to ask
someone to change what or how they posted to the list, they have been
responsive and respectful for the most part. Thank you all for your
respectful discussion. You set the tone of this list and make it a
great
resource.
Best regards,
Chris Weiler

Hi Kim,
Good to hear from you. Looking forward to seeing you at the Down East
festival.
If you want to change your options, go to this page:
http://www.sharedweight.net/mailman/options/callers
enter your e-mail address and password and you can change your
options,
including changing the digest mode setting. It's the 2nd option in the
grey area halfway down the page.
If you've forgotten your password, enter the e-mail address you
subscribed with and click the password reminder button and a reminder
e-mail will be sent to you.
enjoy!
Chris
