This dance is for David Lieberman, one of the Gay Gordons enthusiasts for difficult or unusual dances.  It was inspired by <<ddd:Mrs Stuart Linnell>> which is one of his favourites.  

DAVID is an acronym for David Admires Very Involved Dances.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (5). 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.
