Quickstep is the sole focus of this Gold Star Ballroom collection, which places eighteen recordings by the Gold Star Ballroom Orchestra in one dedicated programme. Its repertoire ranges from Cabaret and Country Roads to Perdido and Strike Up the Band, alongside pop-song titles such as I'll Be There for You and Live and Let Die. That range gives a Quickstep class several choices without requiring a move to another dance category.
The recording lengths also offer different ways to organise rehearsal. Cabaret runs 1:22 and Jeepers Creepers 1:42, while Kingston Town runs 3:44 and After You've Gone 3:49. Teachers can choose a shorter excerpt-sized recording for a focused exercise or a longer selection for continuing partner practice. The album is described as vocal and instrumental, with every track credited to the same orchestra. Track timings and the available composer credits are included below; no individual tempo values are supplied.
