there will never be another ensemble like the 94-96 MCHS Band, ever. Thanks for the memories Mr. White. I came to the tornado family late in 96 from Albany High school #1 trombone in the the city of Albany,Calvin Williams.

[roddj98]

can someone please tell me what is the name of the first song in this show??

[robert31793]

@roddj98 Payload, if someone hasn't already told you. It sounds very similar to Throwdown, which we played the year before this...

[roddj98]

@robert31793 okay cool...do you know where it came from? I did searches on youtube to hear the original arrangement, but I couldn't find anything

[roddj98]

@robert31793 I know I am so late.....but who sings this song? I've been looking for it on youtube and can't find it

[robert31793]

@roddj98 Sings which song? Payload is just a marching band opener, Birdland was originally done by the group Weather Report, but it has been covered by a lot of jazz groups. Check out Maynard Ferguson doing it. It is awesome. As far as When a Man, Loves a Woman, it was originally done by Percy Sledge, but this arrangement, I think, is Bette Midler. This When a Man is the Blue Devil Drum Corp rendition. I hope this helps....

Payload was done very well.

The 1994-1995 Monroe Comprehensive High School trumpet line was one of the best the school ever had. I am glad I was a part of it.
