(from the original leaflet: This dance was collected in Carnoustie, Scotland, by Betty Grant.  It was written out by a local dancer on a paper towel from the men’s washroom at the Beach Ballroom.  The dance was said to  have been brought to Glasgow by a Canadian visitor in 1952 – ’53.  To date the author is unknown.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
