Ashokan Dance Camp is located near Woodstock, NY. I was on staff 1985-86, teaching Western Swing Dancing and Texas Two-Step. What a great time. I got to meet Tiny Moore, who played with Bob Wills & the Texas Playboys. And now through the miracle of modern science, you will get to see and hear him, Jay Ungar, Molly Mason, Rich Lieberson, Matt Glaser, Junior Daugherty, Sean Blackburn, The Dixie Doughboys, and countless others. The recording quality may not be great, but the music is…enjoy.
