I’ve cherished this recording for decades. It also features a wonderful version of The Champions. Like many bands of the era, it’s my understanding that these superstars didn’t stay together for long. True?
@@philipfisher4712 some certainly were. Ian Porthouse was principal cornet and Ken Ferguson on bass had been around for awhile, but it was a fairly young band overall. Some went on to very solid pro careers.
BravoVarious: do you have the rest of the concert? Would be great to see it here. One of the great all time brass band concerts. Like MAVenables91 saiud, just imagine if this was high quality visuals and was for sale on DVD, it would be one of the best DVD's ever.
A virtuoso performance by the entire band! Wow.
I’m jumping to my feet to give them a standing ovation!

I believe they all were students of James Watson’s at the colleges in London and really took the banding scene by storm! Lots of energy!!

Me too. The band was outstanding, and the quality of the playing was one of the best there ever was. No-one sounded like Desford.

@@TheSproutarian I’m told it’s Ian Dickman

Can you imagine if this video actually had this audio quality.
What do you mean, that’s definitely HD isn’t it?
