Got out the CD from Glen of Preserve Our Corps Memories:

Westshoremen - 54, 55, 57, 75

Westshoremen-Bonnie Scots - 66, 67

Got the CD because I sent Glen a casette I found of the '75 Review of the Corps. Can't remember why the show was recorded but the tape was only sold to corps members. The POCM group did a great job of cleaning the tape and recording it to digital format. When they were done they sent the tape back. As "payment" for sending the tape, Glen was going to send me a CD copy of the show. Instead I asked for the WSM/WSM-BS shows on CD.

Shameless plug for the group as they have a ton of stuff on WinMx server (too bad I don't have DSL :( ).

LOL....so, for years, when asked what the corps was playing nextyear, we always joked and said Pink Floyd's The Wall.

last night i judged a band playing that very show...and #### they drummed well.

if and when we ever reform, that, minus the electronics, shoould be our first show
