Trail of the Lonesome Pine (clip) - Don Armstrong
Creator: Don Armstrong
Armstrong took the figures from Ralph Page's "Gents and Corners" dance and set them to a popular tune, creating a well-known singing square. We've also included here a clip of Ted Sannella prompting the Gents and Corners figure for comparison.
Don and Marie Armstrong also performed the Lonesome Pine song as a duo, included here. A cue sheet for the dance is available from the Lloyd Shaw Foundation.
A video of Laurel and Hardy singing the popular song can be found on YouTube.
