So much to choose from. La Boogaloo and The Cat From Cadiz have stayed with me, but that tells you more about my memory than about the number of numbers I enjoyed. The Pistol Song was remarkable, in a trashy way.

Correction: Jig's Jig, not La Boogaloo.

Yes, both of those are quite infectious. Jig's Jig has some fine percussive drumming.
Thx for listening!
