I'm In Heaven CD from David Read
The July 2004 release from David contains 24 tracks, including salsa, bossa nova, calypso and line cha cha. The title comes from the lyrics of the first track, Cheek To Cheek.
I'm not familiar with the Caribbean Calypso although it was apparently published by North Star. The other possibility is a Line dance of the same name (this script is on-line here). The music certainly has a line-dance feel to it.
The salsas are reasonable but, like most sequence salsas, over-emphasise the fourth beat which encourages the dancers to turn taps into stamps, and flicks into kicks! Just my opinion of course. However, track 17 Ob La Di Ob La Da stops several bars short of a complete 16 bars sequence!
David gets carried away a bit towards the end of the Glen Miller swing medley. It may be a bit busy for some dancers.
