Red Bates 1961, Patter

Creator: Red Bates (1961)

By the time of our first clip from a 1961 dance at the Newton Pavilion in Newton, NH, Bates was a busy caller working dances throughout New England. The choreography is very representative of MWSD at that time. It includes a mixture of the Ed Gilmore Ends Turn In routine, Star action and a Susie Q.

Collection: MWSD
Subjects: Modern Western 1960 - 1974
