Hello Dick,

Rawhide Records and staff attended the 55th National Square Dance Convention in San Antonio, Texas. A very big thank you to all the callers and cuers who stopped by the Rawhide Record booth.

The staff enjoyed visiting with each of you and we thank you for your interest in our music. Sales for the 3-day convention were excellent, which is a great compliment to the company and staff for the quality music and choreography they consistently produce.

Hasta Manana - What a great song from the 1970's group ABBA! To enhance your dancers enjoyment of this song, Rawhide recorded the music in an upbeat ABBA style.

Tom Rudebock recorded a Square Dance Singing Call RWH- 229 and a Karaoke Sing-A-Long RWH- 831 to this great ABBA song.

How High The Moon - A wonderful evergreen song from the famous duo of Les Paul and Mary Ford! For you and your dancers to enjoy this long time favorite, Rawhide recorded the music with an upbeat Les Paul Guitar.

Craig Abercrombie recorded two vocals to this exciting song. A Square Dance Singing Call RWH- 230 and a Karaoke Sing-A-Long RWH- 831.

Jim and Kathie Kline have been very busy the past few months writing and recording 7 new Round Dances and 1 new karaoke Sing-A-Long.

BeBop Blues - This is an original song written and arranged by Dick Waibel and Jim Kline. Rawhide developed a new Blues rhythm for this song and recorded it with a great Jazz blues Organ and Piano.

Jim wrote some outstanding blues lyrics for this song and recorded a Karaoke Sing-A-Long RWH- 832.

Jim and Kathie also wrote 3 round dances for this song. A Phase II Two-step, a Phase III Fox Trot and a Phase IV + 1 Jive. Jim recorded all 3 dances and you can listen to the music and dances at RWH- 832.

Hasta Manana - Jim recorded two round dances to this upbeat song. A Phase II Two- Step and a Phase III Cha Cha. You can listen to the music and dances at RWH- 831.

How High The Moon - Jim recorded two round dances to this great evergreen song. A Phase II Two-Step and a Phase III Cha Cha. Listen to the dances and music at RWH- 833.

Voices of Spring Waltz - A wonderful Strauss Waltz that Rawhide recorded in an exciting new arrangement.

Mike Seurer worked so hard for Rawhide this past year that we gave him some time off. Now Mike is back with a bang! Mike and Michell have written two dances for this song. A Phase II Waltz and a Phase IV Waltz. Listen to this new music and Mike's recordings at RWH- 724.
Rawhide Records just recorded 3 new hoedowns. "AJ Hoedown", "BoFunk Hoedown" and "Jamaica Hoedown". These hoedowns are not the normal boom-chuck hoedowns, but are uniquely arranged and recorded for the progressive caller.

As a test, we offered these three hoedowns for sale at our Record Booth in San Antonio, TX during the National Square Dance Convention and sold out the second day.

I have not uploaded samples of the hoedown music to the Rawhide web site but will do so before the end of July.
Two new ideas under consideration for upcoming newsletters, Digital Music recording and Computer Programs for Callers and Cuers. Are these subjects of interest to you? If they are, let me know and I will begin developing them.

If you have a subject you would like spotlighted in an upcoming newsletter, please send me an email with your ideas.
Your privacy is important to us; therefore, we will not sell, rent or give away you name or e-mail address to anyone, ever. I promise!
