GUEST,Jane Bird English trad and boxes - history? (26) RE: English trad and boxes - history? 08 May 03

I reckon that Stevethesqueze is spot on about choice of instruments for morris dance - ie what ever was to hand. There were one or two Cotswold sides (Abingdon at one time, I think) that danced to mouth organ from time to time.

CraigS mentioned dancing to banjo. I've occasionally danced Bleddington "Cuckoo's Nest" to solo banjo. It's rather groovey, actually, but you do need to be somewhere without heavy trafic noise and the like!
