Please note - a listing of music used is given only as a guide. These tracks may be not in sequence, or may drift out of sequence, or may not be long enough to be used at a normal sequence dancing venue. Inventors may be using tracks to suit the choreography, and to cover two or three sequences at most, as required by the competition rules. Note particularly that many "Blackpool" competition or championship tracks last only 2 minutes or less, all that is required by Ballroom and Latin competition rules.
