I love this tune. I was in the PRIDE of Oklahoma when Roland wrote this and we played it in 1986, The Jazz Opener. Watch the youtube video The Pride of Oklahoma 1986 Orange Bowl pt 1
wasn't this also done at the O.B.A. contest ? at the conclusion of finals ? ? nothing against the fine high school bands, BUT, it was always a treat to watch & listen to a massive college band, part everyone's hair.

Jensson Publications. It was written by Roland Barrett. It came out in 1987. This was one of my alltime favorite marching band songs. Many of his arrangements have this feel.
this recording is evident of something I've said every marching season since my freshman year. a lot of tuba sections play the whole thing wrong. and they all play it the wrong way the same. How is this happening is there something they are not reading or articulating ?
@@angelgiacomo so I guess you didn't read it right. I was saying the recording is not what the bands I heard play. Meaning the bands the I heard were not playing it right not the master recording. Why would I say the master recording was wrong ?
