Thanks for posting! This band is why I set a goal as a child to be a member of "The Hundred." And I reached my goal in the early 80s! Listen to the sound coming from the size of this band. Look at the marching, speed and technique of the quick step moving from one formation to another. It's the mark of excellence!
Thank Heavens for this Nostalgia! Notice how those Caped Crusaders took the field after Slow One without splitting all over the field.. The Dozen had so much enthusiasm Doc White put them in front of the DM’s the next year in 78!... The Halftime Show footage they performed is somewhere out there... This band was blowing “Natural Born Smoke”....in the Concert Formation they played “Easy” by The Commodores and “Don’t Ask My Neighbor” by The Emotions! This show was definitely “FUNKTASTIC”!! Hubba Doc!
Goals Set!! 🔶Straght Lines❗ 🔶90 Degree angle Knees, Showmanship 🔶Hard work Discipline, Pride Please, Please find a way To Post this Performance where the Drum Majors, band members and students of 2019 can see.
Those the cymbals up front was Richard Jones aka Crow the short one on the right (me) and David Nuby. Part of the original start of the name for the percussion section Z28.
@@errolmcwhite2019 OMG, HE’S the one that trained me,tell him crow says Hi, he was Great your uncle, probably the best cymbal player I saw in my time and after and he could play and stick snare. I had a great appreciation for that guy.
@@richard7930 I will tell him you said hello. I was in the band as well, Fall 1992 Snare drum "Death Row" Lil' Jello. My uncle made sure I was ready when it was my time to hit the "patch". I remember him talking about you when I was younger. If I am not mistaken, you are the same "Crow" that went to South Broward?
Wrong Crow Earl, I didn’t meet your uncle until 74, and because my nick name out of high school (South Plantation) was Batman, your uncle the black Barney fife, (and he looked just like him)gave me the name Crow, being a little darker and because he said he already knew a Batman.😅😊
The original name for the percussion section Z28 came from these guys in “74”.Still smoking fast cadence in this video in “77”. You here those cymbals clanging clean and crisp, did you see that IRON BUTTERFLY out of the slow one,that’s me aka (Crow)Richard Jones the short one, and David Nuby up front. Long live the 100, Hubba Doc.
I think that this is the pregame show. I think I remember famu playing best of my love by the emotions and Tennessee state played boogie nights by heatwave.
The standard of excellence remained at such a high level all through the last century and especially in the 70s. Every decade seems to outdo the one after it. It sounds as if there are 400 musicians on the field and it appears to be less than 180. The balance and intonation is amazing. I am sure the opposing band would not want to take the field after this performance.
I was a member of SCSUs Marching 101 in the 80s and they were better than advertised. Amazing sound. I heard them for the first time in the late 70s. Its kinda was kinda shocking to see them live. Not the same.
