I think the most awesome part about all of this great playing is the fact that there is no Dr beat. or no person really clicking with them. They are ridiculously dialed in.
Jabrond Gamble they are riduculously dialed in, because they did all of that when they were kids... metronomes are used for homework and beginning levels...once mastered, its second nature... the past 20 years, you can tell snare players skipped a couple of steps, and their timing struggles... one such hint is they play like rock stars on the backside of the beat...and they don't know it until someone from the THESE lines tell them.
No Dr. Beat. No dots. No yard line relationships. No relentless dutting. We just got into our curvilinear forms according to whatever was on Pete Emmons' velum and grease pencil easel. All rote memory, pretty much, from what I recall. Fred Sanford was a cool dude, in a "Jazz Cat" kind of way. He knew music, that's for sure. Sorry he's gone. Still get a smile seeing Pete at drum corps shows. He works for BD now.
you know what else there isn’t. Exceptionally difficult rhythmic passages, tenors at height for anybody. Any difficult bass writing. But hey yeah they were definitely dialed in without a met, and they definitely dut less (though you can hear it still) and yeah they don’t have dots (to or exceptionally hard drill). And yeah no met, and also they aren’t playing at 220 or anything. Also no front ensemble. I’m not saying this is bad just hat progress was definitely the correct direction and this was not a “better time in drum corps” it has its merits and it has its drawbacks just like anything.
The jeans aren't very helpful in heat, but we are idiots about heat these days. It's better to cover up with something loose and floppy than it is to be out there with no shirt.
oh yeah..I love marching band, even the woodwinds. But I think having to work within the 'constraints" (not really a good term but..) of using bell-front horns and drums (without amps) made the arrangers work a little harder to be creative, and man, look at the results. I dunno...maybe that's what it takes to keep people interested.
+panda44r you can't march all keys, only xylo and bells, which are really the only solo instruments in pit, but vibes and marimbas add a whole different tone and feeling to the show.
Tell me about it. I was in the SCV B Corps in 1978. I spent hours watching these guys play--and I was a horn player. Rob Carson went to my high school and taught our 'line, as well. Got to march with many of these guys in the A Corps in 79.
I was just about to comment on the fact they are using match grip, too!! I marched corps from 96-99 and I am pretty sure that SCV used match grip one of those years....might've been 95?
i was on Dutchboys snare line in 79 and it was a match grip year though i was taught traditional by my older brother who marched Seneca Optimists snareline in 76 and 77. i begged the Dutchboy drum instructor to let us play trad but there were too many on the line that couldnt get it. oh well. our score had a lot of sticking in it and it would of been way better doing it Traditional grip.
when i marched snare in 79 we used the sling with the dome projector under the snare. talk about heavy. would always whack my knee on that projector cause i was at the end so I was moving fast. lol
It's too bad he passed away too early. His main colleague from the SCV era, Pete Emmons, and his protegé, Ralph Hardimon are still both alive and kickin'. Still involved in corps. Fred was a heavy smoker, as I recall. Probably contributed to his early demise. Too bad, I liked him. He was a "cool cat."
I believe the marching tympani lines added a lot of melodic lines a single tympanist could not do. 3 men could play while the other 2 retune. I have a Slingerland catalog as well. The heaviest instrument was the vibes, at only 35 pounds.
I first saw this on a cine film when Drum Corps influence was first being introduced to the UK, along with a McCormicks DCI Film on Drum Corps in general.
The narrator is Robbie Carson. One of the greatest rudimentary snare drummers that ever lived. Plus, he had Fred Sanford, one of greatest drum instructors that ever lived. I first saw Robbie in about 1969, when he was just a kid, about a foot shorter than the rest of the guys in the line. Drum Corps News made him quite a celeb, but he really was that good.
I swear I saw something in the 90's about them using matched on snare and their pedagogical approach. I will have to look. Of course, to me the 90's was "recently.." :-)
In some cases. However, most of us were from the local high schools and colleges. We either marched SCV or Concord. Not many traveled too far to march in another corps. Different times.
I first saw this film - 16 or 35mm (I forget) in a gym when we were on a mini tour with a Youth Band. Back in that time, Rob Carson and Fred Sanford were demiGods, and that 78 SCV show was my mind-blowing introduction to DCI. Man what I wouldn't do for a time machine...
When I'm a band director after I graduate and go to college, I think I'm gonna use Mylar heads. I like that crispy sound. mmm. Also, am i the only one who think marching timpani have a cooler sound than concert timpani?
John Martin the specific snare heads they use in this are godly....i just got one on a 1960's slingerland i bought....god why did they stop making that model
haha john , u would have loved drum corps back then man, the parts and arrangements are much more congested with more notes now, but the whole vibe back then , was generally just blow the audience away with a huge sound. I wonder what your doing now , as ive seen lots of your comments on the old school hype ?
@Footbalar09: my guess is control. It's much easier to articulate those open rolls across ten snares and keep it clean. And then there's aesthetics. When it was discovered that the snare drum could be carried parallel to the ground with the carrying straps, playing traditional grip, cleanly, became a challenge and why you see some corps' of today, that play traditional, angle their snares.
@leemcd56 ... not exactly forever ... straight bass (with one stick) and without graduated size through the 1960s with usually a pair of rudimental basses playing a monotone part. Then, in the early seventies (cutting edge 1972) graduated basses but still with one stick. During ensuing 6 years before the making of this video, the combined rudi/pitched/two stick bass sections emerged. But you're right ...all the separated patterns there from the start when it happened including solo bass cadence.
Mason Carmody ebay it up...please though, don't go with a Slingerland unless it has all of its parts and you're prepared to find it or make it if it doesn't or breaks
As Charley Poole would say: "Back when men were men, sheep were scarce, and women were glad..." I met Fred Sanford in 1986, and Rob Carson helped the '84 Lancers when I was in the snare line. Their approach was the state of the art in those days. What fun!
I marched snare with Bayonne in '84. A friend of mine from the tri-tom line and I were just talking about you guys over Thanksgiving dinner. We both loved that '84 Lancers drum line! Watched you many times throughout that season. You guys should've beat Blue Devils in finals!
Just saw this video today. Wow, I thought the 1987 Santa Clara Vanguard was the first time they played this Drum SOLO. The way it was written sounded so clean live with correct note interpretation and phrasing. This is great the 1978 Vanguard was the original version and it sounded extremely similar. I am a old drum corp relic but just got shown how wet behind the ears I am when it comes to drum corp knowledge. My hats off to you 1978 Santa Clara Vanguard. See 1987 Vanguard version here ruclips.net/video/yaVJX22WRxo/видео.html
Lezghinka was played in '78, as shown in this film. It was so intense! The corps also played Lezghinka in '79, one of the years I marched SCV. We also played it last year in the SCV Alumni Corps.
Back when drumlines were real Drumline still PS I own a slingerland snare drum that I purchased in August of 1958 looks brand new like when I took it out of the box for the very first time with mylar heads love my drum
Oneness in time my butt! Snare tick in the foreground at 2:07 while playing SINGLES. Not to mention the dirty transition to the left hand just prior to that. Todays DCI lays waste to these classic guys. I know it’s hard to hear….but it’s the truth. Still doesn’t make them bad players…..but to me the definition of clean has evolved tremendously.
holy f-ing balls! that's the weight of the marching bongos (the big latin drums, haha. idk if congas are big or not) a corp marched a few times! or the xylo-vibe from SOA, 79. dude what model are they? my school has a set of Yamaha Field-Corp. About 25 pounds.
Most people unfamiliar with that era are shocked by that. LOL. I suspect one reason was for leg clearance when marching with those larger drums, but also the practicality of balancing the weight. If those big, heavy drums were worn to low, it would've been a spinal nightmare.
Oh yeah. There was no "legal" pit area for most of the '70s. Everything had to be carried. I believe the rules changed around 1978 but even then, it would be a few more years before most corps fully adapted to concert percussion on the sideline. Even up to 1982, SCV was still using marching mallet instruments (although the timps were stationary by then).
Yup. SCV were one of the "innovators" (if you will) at applying matched-grip at the top DCI level back in the day. SCV won high-percussion in 1974 & 1975 (one of the best drumlines ever) playing traditional, then won high-percussion in '78 & '79 playing matched-grip, which definitely influenced other lines of that era to do the same (most notably the 27th Lancers throughout the 1980s under the direction of Charlie Poole Jr.) Santa Clara played matched-grip from 1978 to 1983 before switching back to traditional-grip in 1984. But then back to matched-grip for the 1995 & 1995 seasons, and then again in 2005. All other years were traditional-grip.
That's one Drumline still play Mini rudiments. Not so many rimshots that a totally unnecessary, no bobbing of the head, Nobody English, no juggling, and no prancing around like ballerinas.
This video is proof that articulation and focused tuning was possible before die cast hoops and kevlar sucked the resonance out of drum lines and castrated them in subservience to horns. *Choreography* gurus lacked appreciation for the section building this video describes. Too "boring" for them. The pit was THEIR answer to get rid of whatever could not be moved quickly, plus carriers applied to snares. Sonic nuance of movement of tymps in two dimensions disappeared along with tymp ensemble work

I think if you tried to wear jeans to a corps rehearsal today you would be flogged.

Fred Sanford.....what a progressive thinking percussion instructor!
So this line had
-Snares
-Tri-Toms
-Basses
-Timpanis
-Cymbals
-Melodic Percussion
And the basses are like
Bass 3, 3.5, 4, and 5
It looked like they were the 4 largest marching bass drums we have today lol
The old Santa Clara bass cadence still gets the chill bumps running
I play snare in an alumni line (avant garde) and that's our go-to bass cadence. I'm a bit partial to Iowa, but it's nice to hear the guys play SCV
This is a great video to show to students to let them know what a drum corps percussion section should be all about.
HE360 That's my point.
Yep, see my comment.
The marching tympani line is much like a handbell choir. Fascinating...
+panda44r How was marching timpani? Was it heavier than tenors?
Carbon fibre tympani would work. That said, why spot 4-5 players to do the job just 1 can do on the sideline?
they're allowing trombones now. that's sacrilege enough.
oh yeah..I love marching band, even the woodwinds. But I think having to work within the 'constraints" (not really a good term but..) of using bell-front horns and drums (without amps) made the arrangers work a little harder to be creative, and man, look at the results.

I like how he broke down and rehearsed each drum line section separately.
I was mesmerized by corps like this in the late 70s. They just took the field and you held your breath.
Crazy how much the instruments have changed
Their 1st bass is that same size as a modern 3rd bass.
Between 3rd-5th
I LOVED THAT OPENER! Please play it again SCV!
Those guys have been the best for many years and I had a few friends who were in the Vanguard in the 70’s and the 80’s.
For SCV, snare harnesses came in 1979. SCV had 11 snares that year and won high drums.
12 snares in 79"
when i marched snare in 79 we used the sling with the dome projector under the snare. talk about heavy. would always whack my knee on that projector cause i was at the end so I was moving fast. lol

I love the mantra of the day back then: "If you can't tote it, you don't march it".
I believe the marching tympani lines added a lot of melodic lines a single tympanist could not do. 3 men could play while the other 2 retune.
I have a Slingerland catalog as well. The heaviest instrument was the vibes, at only 35 pounds.
It was 27, definitely. Think Kingsmen had 2 or 3 chimes attached to their marching bells in '74.
Always great I remember competing against them Bridgemen brass 80’s

Classic!
At about 9:40 one can see backsticking at a slow tempo, which is helpful to those of us who are not that familiar with it.

It's weird to see matched on snare.
didn't SCV use matched grip for snares up until recently?
No, they didn't. They did for a while in the 1970s, but nobody's been using it for ages and ages.

Right. One of the "match grip" years. It proved to be very successful for them. They took high drums in 78 and 79 using match grip.
Marching timpani! Kinda wish those were still used
Fiberglass. They were terrible to keep in tune.
I'm also a fan of marching tymps. They sound so cool backfield echoing off the bleachers. You miss that nowadays kinda.
Very cool!......
It always amazes me how long it took people to figure out that having toms sitting this high is not a good idea
We need more timpani lines

Sopr, Alto, Tenor, Bass..that's an interesting way to look at pitched drums..
I'll have to try that.

Watching this for my drumline lol

Question, when did SCV snares change to Kevlar heads with die cast hoops? Was it in 89?
1987
With the tenors that high I'd imagine a lot of wrist injuries..
No injuries. That was the way the carriers were made. The Slingerland carriers were not comfortable though.
That's just the way Santa Clara used to play.
1970's. the year where guys wore booty shorts and it was normal.
now the people that did that in the 70s complain about men dressing "girly"

In the later 70’s and early 80’s matched was popular. It worked.
Back when elbow contact was a thing in snare lines.
He meant the size of the basses.
5:53 hey, this sounds familiar 🙂
What is the name of it?
Sounds like Bob Ross at 4:02
I bet they never knew the marimba would be added 2 years after this
if they saw scv from the future, they'd shit bricks.
That's one Drumline still play Mini rudiments. Not so many rimshots that a totally unnecessary, no bobbing of the head, Nobody English, no juggling, and no prancing around like ballerinas.
I apologize for voice recognition should read many rudiments, not Mini rudiments
Kent Cater is on #2.
That, and Americans were generally skinnier in the 70s. Everyone was pretty skinny, and people who marched corps were more fit.
I was always battling my chubbiness back then. Drum corps had me looking the fittest I ever was in my entire life. I'm back to chubbs now. LOL.
