Wow this takes me back to September of 1982 when I played with the Woodrow Wilson High School Concert Band in Portsmouth Virginia for the "Music Festival" that year! This is a beautiful piece. I am sure all who were skilled enough to play it ROCKED THE HOUSE! I know we certainly did!!!

LOL!!!! Ok, so I can't back that up! I don't have a recording of our band playing this, but believe you me....Thanks for the reply. you made me laugh.
Andress High School (John Bailey directing) was Burges' biggest rival during this era. I think our version was better (smiles). Now if I can get a copy and post it....

I would like to hear Andress's version. As far if it's a better version than this one, the tape will tell.

No one played this tune like Ferguson High School back in 1986! Listening to this make me feel like I'm in High school again. I'mma burn this music on CD right now!
