MiamiSun76 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Unless I am off the mark...I do believe Chris Hestin is a Regiment alum... if so, he marched in Marty's parade... :P :P Don't get me wrong, Marty did some great work. When he did Bleu Raeders and Belleville his sidekick was #### Filkins (who taught me my first paradiddle). He also spent considerable time with Miami in the later years. Marty was the ideal Bobby Thompson product, and that's #### high praise. As for Chris being a Phantom alum, well, I'm just glad he didn't follow Marty and write "Ode to Joy" in 6/8. b**bs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiamiSun76 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Chris used to teach for Crossmen when Thom was writing. Robbie Robinson and Mark Thurston were in the line back in those days. 1980 was an amazing year with that staff. Don't forget Dale Adair. What a tribute to Eric Landis and Bill Kauffmann who developed them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stockman365 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Thurston - tasty Cassella - cerebral Rennick - dignified Kuhn - crazy cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93Bluecoat Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Listen to Hannum (87 Cadets, 93 Star)Listen to Hardimon (SCV 81-90...any year) Mike in OH Rasta Hardimon....SCV '84-'87 is some of the best in the history of the activity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 #1 Fred Sanford, The Godfather of Modern Marching Percussion. Just listen carefully to the 1979 and 1980 SCV Lines. Listen to the perfectly tuned Slingerland CutAWays in '79. ....and then there are the others: Tom Float (Everything he touched turned to gold) Dennis DeLucia (Can you cop a feel of that beat?) I'll second the honorable mention of Matt Savage. A little bit of Dennis rubbed off on him, especially his work with VK -'84 -'88) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john2780 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 (edited) Three underrated geniuses from different eras:Mike Kumer (Finleyville & DPV) ) Mike Kumer also wrote and instructed 27th in 1977 & 78. Check out his arrangements for 1977's Rocky as it was not only awesome piece to hear but way too much fun to play :) Edited July 18, 2006 by john2780 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbitz Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Dennis Delucia Ralph Hardimon Chris Thompson Steve Weekes Jeff Moore (Early 90's) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobrien Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 All the usual suspects (Delucia, Sanford, Float, Hannum, Hardimon, Kuhn, Casella), plus Larry McCormick (Cavaliers in the 60s) and Dan Spalding (Cavaliers mid 70s, then again in '82).
