In my slow dance video I use several songs and types of music to demonstrate the three dances: waltz, one step, and foxtrot. Here are some examples of music for each dance.

Foxtrot

Great Foxtrot CD's...

Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong "Compact Jazz"
Contents: "A Foggy Day," "Cheek to Cheek," Can't We Be Friends," and "Let's Call The Whole Thing Off."

Frank Sinatra "Music For Swinging Lovers"
13 great foxtrots with Nelson Riddle's orchestra and masterful arrangements.
Includes: "You Make Me Feel So Young," "It Happened In Monterrey," You Brought A New Kind Of Love To Me," "Pennies From Heaven," "Love Is Here To Stay," "I've Got You Under My Skin," "How About You." Possibly the best collection of foxtrots available on one CD.

Frank Sinatra "The Capitol Years"
A "boxed set" of 3 CDs issued in December, 1990, containing 75 musical selections from his Capitol recordings from 1953 to 1962. Enough foxtrots to last a lifetime.

"Dionne Warwick Sings Cole Porter" CD
Contains seven foxtrots: "Night And Day," "I Love Paris," "I've Got You Under My Skin," "It's All Right With Me," and "All Of You."

The One Step
The one step is danced by taking one step on each beat of the music. No syncopations or "quicks and slows" are used. Oldies and slow blues music are best suited for this dance. Songs such as, "It's Only Make Believe," "Unchained Melody," "Crazy" by Patsy Cline, "Pyramids" by Patsy Cline and "New Orleans Lady"
