Roark1 Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 (edited) What?!? No Finlandia yet? In all seriousness, God Bless The Child (BST arrangement) is always cool. I wish I could remember the name of the piece that the Argonne Rebels opened with in the early 70's. Too bad I can't hum it in a post. Anyway, what ever it was called, I vote for that one. And Mambo (Kingsmen) too! Edited September 28, 2005 by Roark1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longfade Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 Yes on Tenderland! Especially with that gorgeous "Grover's Corners" intro they did in '85. I'd like to hear someone do the Blackwatch arrangement of "Inner Crisis". Man that was roaring. Was that '76? Skyryders "Home On the Range" would certainly make me smile!

McDuffy Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 AMEN! Two of my SCV favorites. I loved that 1984 show. Bob, Get thine arse and lips back to the Frenchie, eh :) McD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FHBob Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Bob,Get thine arse and lips back to the Frenchie, eh :) McD MIKE! What's up? Great to hear from you - this has made my day - forget that, it's made my week! I am really enjoying playing your arrangements again - I always loved that French horn part during the quiet part in Folk Song Suite - I played it loud just to get on the recording! You're a legend, man. Brother George says hello - still in S.F. Looking forward to working with you once again - it will be fun and a major honor. Bye for now - gotta go practice!

FHBob Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Also performed by the '79 Guardsmen(definitive version) and '87 Blue Devils. Also performed by the '69 and '70 Anaheim Kingsmen in varying arrangements. Full number was dropped by tour time, they just played the last 20 or so bars (I'm not sure of the time signature). Did the whole thing at a spring standstill in 1969. Yes, '79 Guardsmen version is really excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
