RE: Ask and Ye shall receive - Perhaps!

Actually, it gets a bit more complicated than that.

I have some very good recordings of Sets of Reels / Jigs etc, but the first thing I
do when selecting CDs is to see if I have a recording for the dance (even if it
hasn't actually got a named tune!).  So I finish up using what might be an inferior
recording, just because someone bothered to make a recording for a particular dance. 

I suppose I could go through all my dances to see if any of them have recommended
tunes, and then check to see if that was the tune used on a particular recording -
but I won't! I will continue to search my CD database to see if the dance has a
recording, and use it if there is one.
