Choreo – Choreo Blues
I believe Choreo was a company that specialised in instructional dance records. This 45 has a couple of nice jazz tracks that feature somewhat quirky intros before hitting with some pretty nice jazz grooves. Does anyone have more information on the label, or know if they have other worthwhile releases?

This tune is sweet! Has a definite Mancini groove to it. Don’t know anything about Choreo specifically, but I put a pretty nice latin dance tune called “Too Hot For Bongos” on my first Waxidermy Mix Swap cd.

Choreo was a company that did specialize in instructional dance music for jazz. There are several more records that were made. I currently have 5 of them, different than the one you have. Buster Cooper legendary dance instructor was a partner of this company. He still teaches dance in the Dallas area and is 85 years old. Let me know if you have any other questions and I will try to get the answers for you.
i just found a 45 on this same label a little over a month ago; song’s called darkness. pretty sick track, nothing hard & heavy but as the title suggests it is a bit dark. wouldn’t hesitate to pick up more stuff off the label if i came across it…
