Why Purpose Engage life as play. Play is defined as imaginative interaction. Play is an attitude rather than an activity. Emphasize process over performance.

I replied, “Honky Tonk.” This genre is otherwise known as Texas dance hall music. Honky-tonk - Wikipedia Before World War II, the music industry began to refer to hillbilly music being played from Texas and Oklahoma to the West Coast as "honky-tonk" music. In the 1950s, honky-tonk entered its golden age, with the popularity of Webb Pierce, Hank Locklin, Lefty Frizzell, Ray Price, Faron Young, George Jones, and Hank Williams. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honky-tonk Images for honky tonk music Ameripolitan artists such as Asleep at the Wheel and Dale Watson seek to carry on this tradition. I like the smooth pace and the brisk tempo of their music. Ameripolitan - Wikipedia Ameripolitan is a genre of contemporary original music encompassing four prominent subcategories: Western swing, honky-tonk, rockabilly and outlaw. Championed by Austin-based singer Dale Watson, the ameripolitan genre was established for contemporary artists upholding traditional roots-influenced musical formats to distinguish themselves from the formats produced by the mainstream country pop music industry.[1][2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ameripolitan https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ameripolitan_Music_Awards Images of ameripolitan Otherwise, I enjoy various kinds of up-tempo music. I appreciate what a leader of an old-time band, which also plays Western Swing, said, “If they can’t dance to it, we don’t play it.” Following are songs from various genres. In addition, I include links to YouTubes, videos, and resources on the following dances: Balboa, Black Bottom, Boogie Woogie, Cajun, Charleston, Collegiate Shag, Contra, Country, Cumbia, East Coast Swing, 50s 60s Rock and Roll, Honky Tonk, Hustle, Jazz Dance in the Ragtime era, Jitterbug, Jive, Jump Blues, Lindy Hop, Merengue, Peabody, Quebradita, Rockabilly, Salsa, Savoy Style Lindy Hop, Swing Dance, West Coast Swing, Zydeco.
