MONKEY MAGIC

CHOREOGRAPHER: William Sevone (WM '71) October 26th 2001, Fremantle, Australia
COUNT: 32
TYPE: 4 Wall Line Dance
LEVEL: Advanced Beginner
MUSIC: Monkey Around by Delbert McClinton-116 bpm ('One Of The Fortunate Few')
	Why Me by Delbert McClinton-162 bpm

Choreographer's note: I will make no apology for the title of this dance,
either you loved or loathed the tv series of the same name...besides,
nothing else seemed appropriate. I love this album..but not for Delbert's
singing..but for Bekka Bramlett's. She IS her Mothers daughter
(ahhh, memories from a long time ago).
