Vintage MWSD - Sets In Order Premium Album (1971)(2 of 3)

The Sets In Order organization, started in 1948 as a monthly square dance magazine along with a record label producing music with and without calls for square dancing.   Under the direction of Bob Osgood, Sets In Order would branch out into educational resources, printed and recorded along with institutes for dancers and callers.  Many point to Sets In Order and Bob Osgood as the major force behind the evolution of Modern Western Square Dancing. By 1971, "Sets" had developed two lists that would standardize which calls all dancers may be expected to know.  Standardization of this kind would make it possible for dancers to travel the world and be able to find dancing that would be comfortable for them.  This album represents the entry level 50 calls plus twenty-five "EXTENDED BASICS". This is the first time a Japanese caller is featured on any recording. MC is Bob Osgood and featured callers are: Jerry Haag Jerry Helt Bruce Johnson Jon Jones Frank Lane Jim Mayo Tac Ozaki Bob Van Antwerp Keep this podcast going by making a contribution using the button below.
