This dance could be adapted for Lionel Richie version to 52, 36, 52, 36, 52, 25 by adding 4 counts to end of walls 1 & 3
(Make a full turn to the right moving right and stepping R, L, R, L).
Dance would then end on count 25 where the sailor ¼ left would be replaced by sailor ¾ left to finish facing the front.
The intro would be 16 counts.
BUT Tony’s version is magical, spine tingling stuff, and it’s worth waiting for his CD !
