And the hands of the couple behind the white couple on the left look like they could be black. Pretty progressive for a square-dancing record from the 1960s. Ed Gilmore, civil rights pioneer.

Wow, he taught Modern Western Square Dancing (MWSD) down in my neck of the woods! (if you do the math, he may have only taught about 10 classes.) quote:Ed Gilmore started calling in 1947 and attended the Lloyd Shaw summer seminar in Colorado the following year. Modern Western Square Dancing (MWSD) got it's start shortly after WWII. In the 1940's, the dances were taught as memorized routines. The callers called the dances the exact same way each time. The problem with that method was when couples were away for awhile they could not dance any of the new routines that had been taught. Gilmore, who was one of the early "pioneers" of the dance in the Southern California area, broke the dancing down into basic figures to simplify the dancing. In this way, perhaps Ed was the first to introduce "patter". It was no longer necessary for dancers to memorize the routines. In the Redlands/Riverside CA area, Ed taught over 4000 people to dance. The largest class was 764 people. Another class had 542 people attending. Genesplicer fucked around with this message at 06:28 on Oct 30, 2018 |

I'm from Europe and I had to do square dancing in school but probably because my teacher was a sadist?

The outline of his head including his Dumbo ears make me think of Obama even in the photos of his main work. I thought that someone shopped the former prez into the first (and all subsequent) photos. Ed has that outdoor farmer tan that makes face and hands brown.

What's interesting to me is we've all used our good buddy Ed but no one's picked any of the dancers from the album cover. If I get time tomorrow when I have access to Photoshop I might see if inspiration strikes again.

Surprised people have gone down the David Lynch path and not picked the obvious Dean Stockwell character from Blue Velvet.
