Northern Thunder Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) On a player-for-player basis, that corps, in the early to mid-1970s, had one of the best horn lines I've ever heard. Played some killer charts, too. Really high-rent stuff for a local-circuit corps. It was at the 1972 U.S. Open that the Grenadiers, who were in Class 'A', beat the eventual DCI world champion Anaheim Kingsmen in the brass captions. Both classes were on the same judging sheets that year. Edited December 9, 2015 by Northern Thunder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Thunder Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Anyone have a recording? I want to HEAR that hornline! ! Drum Corps World has a couple Grenadiers recordings for sale (drumcorpsworld.com). If you go to the "Store" and click on Richmond/Wateska you'll see some digitized audio recordings. The Grenadier recordings are from 1970 and 1974. I'm surprised nobody has put any Grenadier stuff on youtube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
