I was a child in the Corps when this was taped. In looking at who is playing in what sections I believe that this was taped in the fall of 1964. Ahead of the 1965 trip to France and the Congress in London there were a few players who switched. Flugelhorn player was playing solo horn and remained there (later played solo horn in the Canadian Staff. Someone else was playing flugel by early 1965.

I grew up in Earlscourt corps. I was moved in 1960, when we went back to England and then moved to USA in 1962. My parents Alice and Bernard Feltwell were in the songsters and band before we moved.
