A Re-Examination of Cadgers' Caper

        Here is a new version of "Cadgers' Caper" which replaces the two original Bs with just one.  I am offering this shorter dance as an alternative to, rather than a replacement for, the original dance.  I like it a little better than the original, but I am willing to let the folk process decided if one should dominate the other.  The Old Friends recording is for the shorter version of the dance (one B music).
