Back in the old days, communities would hold cake walks where you would take you girl friend on a Satturday night. They would play a slow waltz while couples would walk arm in arm in arm to be the best walking couple and win the cake prize.
Damn, I'm getting old.
I played for a few of these back in the 40's in middle Tennessee.

Now I know where that term came from! I've heard a few acoustic instrumentals that had "Cake Walk" as part of the tune title. The cake walk kind of missed me as born in '49. I do remember the Bunny Hop and Camel Walk!
