A buck dance, or buckdance, generally refers to a dance done solo. For instance, the buck-and-wing is a solo tap dance that originated in the South. The term also may have come from a ceremonial dance performed by a Native American wearing the costume of a male animal such as a deer or antelope, known as a buck. “Buckdancer’s choice,” then, would seem to refer to a solo dancer’s own style or choice of dance to be performed.

Really enjoyed both of these...and they are quite different.
Muireann Bradley's was definitely Irish in nature, and her playing was great.
And I think that Lightnin' Hopkins would be pleased with The Stardazed Trail's Backwater Blues.
