Frazee's Nightmare - Les Gotcher, 1954
Creator: Les Gotcher (October 1954)
Commercial recordings bring us excellent sound quality and precise calling. In contrast, one of the delights of live recordings is hearing the caller deal with real-life challenges on the dance floor. In this clip, you can hear Les Gotcher (at 00:23) calling out corrections to a group of dancers before he regains his footing and continues calling the dance.
