Fran Haring Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 (edited) 1983 Sunrisers are at the top of my list. Only 10 baritones that year. Listen to the recording of Sun at DCA Finals that year, and it sounds more like 25. Those guys could bring some serious heat!!!! I think I still have powder burns remaining from standing in front of those guys at the Scranton show in '83. ^OO^ Fran Edited February 18, 2006 by Fran Haring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donny Drum Corps Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 1972 Rochester Crusaders...1975 Phoenix....both had choice members and a great sound. Bushwackers always have a great low brass as well, more recently than the 70's. Sky probably the loudest...with old Hurcs not far behind.

Sky probably the loudest...with old Hurcs not far behind. Donny Donny, read somewhere that the Phoenix Baris had Olds Duratones with the flat/frosted finish. Any idea if that is true and any idea if any other horns had that funky finish. Wondering because Westshore had Olds Duraones but for Contras/Baris only. 72 Cru and 75 Phoneix were loud the whole way around.... And Loud is Good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elphaba01 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 "Loud is God": Going back a "Few" years: The New York Skyliners and Connecticut Hurricanes may lead the list as far as "Loud" goes, with their "Big Horns" of the 1960s way out in front. Dig out your olde Fleetwoods of Sky or the Hurcs at the 1966 Legion Nationals, or the 1969 DCA Finals and you'll most definitly get an "Earfull" of LOUD baritones. Both Joe Genero and Hy Drietzer managed to get a great FULL and loud sound out of their baritone lines, without a lot of blasting and "Stand Outs" overblowing their parts. And remember, these guys were using the olde Getzen GD valve/slide baritones, not the "High Tech" horns of Century 21. Elphaba WWW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
