Favorite Corps songs of the 1970's


Recommended Posts

76' BD - Legend of the One Eyed Sailor was great - We did it at UA in 1990 (I think....there was a lot of beer that summer...)

American in Paris 

If we stretch a few measly years to '83 I would put up Madison with Strawberry Soup

That being said are we actually talking about official corps songs or just specific pieces played in that era by a corps? If we're saying corps songs, I'll have to throw "Georgia" into the mix because, well, you know. I nearly cried the first time I got to play it again at CV in '04, especially with Hunter playing the solo.

Lucretia Mac Evil - Skyliners

Have that on DVD, didn’t think it would be that good and I’m a Skyliners fan. Watched and after picking my jaw off the ground I was sorry I didn’t discover drum corps until 2 years later

My Favorite Things - Bridgemen

La Fiesta - Muchachos

Free Again - Blessed Sacrament Golden Knights

Lucretia Mac Evil - Skyliners

I almost put BS' tune in my list. Was not sure of 1970 counted. LOVE "Free Again". Definitely on my 60's list, as they played it in 69 and 70.

Skyliners..."Give My Regards to Broadway" exit with the "Little Ol' NY" reprise and final fanfare from the end zone.

Bayonne...1976 closer "What I Did For Love"/"One" from "A Chorus Line".

OK, of course I say Danny Boy, but isn’t there any love for 74 Scouts’ Ballet in Brass? Or Brian’s Song?

So Very Hard to Go. 

 

What is Hip? BD '75...the birth of the BD jazz era. 

Another crowd favorite of mine- '79 North Star and the Beach Boys. 

AND still another fave close to home. '79 Guardsmen Henry V.
