A popular entertainment in Australia during the 1950s was Square Dancing, and just about any song could be turned into a square dance call. Gary 'Chuck’ Cohen, one of Australia’s top square dance callers of the period, recorded a version of Waltzing Matilda on an album with the Noel Gilmour Quartet.
