There was a survey about people's favorite hbcu band content providers on youtube a year ago on some facebook band page. You could only vote for 1 person, and Tapemaster you only had about 300 votes including mine compared to thousands of votes for some of the other content providers, and they do have quality videos with all the new technology, but I love your vintage stuff man, I like seeing how it was back in the days before I played myself. Appreciate you.
Can folk just appreciate the footage, without making unnecessary comparisons of then and now... The HBCU band culture is strong and is of major influence to bands all over the world.
Love Da Boom! Tuba Dawg "Puff" my Crab Year 1988 and Last Game! I went from Yvonne Bush, Lower 9th Ward, Edison "Sam Millis", Gregory Gators "Salisbury", The St. Aug Marching 100 (BandMaster Hamp) "The Best Band in the Land to the Sonic Boom. New Orleans in the HOUSE! I loved every moment! What awesome people helped us and give WISDOM!
Wow...vintage footage Tapemaster! I grew up around both these bands. They are ones that made me want to pick up that trombone back in 86 in Jr. High. The Boom always been on it!
Nobody’s cocking the horns to Jesus, everyone is standing in a still posture without all of this choir swaying. Everyone looks disciplined, focused and sharp. What happened to our HBCU bands? 😢
Lol, I love that cocking to Jesus, but they most certainly were sir. This footage is 1988, but other SWAC bands started doing it earlier than 1988, right after SU introduced the style back in the 70's. When you have time, just go through and view more of the older footage on this channel. I've seen Texas Southern, JSU, and Grambling all raising their instruments to Jesus, as you put it, some of them back in the early 80's and some in the 90's. JSU stop doing it thought, because SU Directors started calling them out as SU copycats during halftime shows. I know Paul Adams took SU style to JSU. Grambling say theirs different, because they raise their instrument to Jesus but raise high and to the Left, and not high and forward like SU. Now, the Ocean still doing it today, but they been doing it ever since the 80's. It caught on with some of the SWAC bands, due to SU. It will never change with SU though, since it's the trademark and the original marching style of the Human JukeBox.
@@fountainmedia4683 I disagree. No one does it any differently. It’s an illusion that says “I ain’t cranking if I don’t bring my horn up to Jesus before I blow”. I get taking a breath before putting the air into the horn, but that needs to stop because it affects the sound, tremendously. I know it’ll never ever stop because the kids are way too far gone and the directors won’t ever stop it either. Smh
@@fountainmedia4683You do your best to insert SU into every HBCU marching band... SU is not even this footage... A band's positioning their instruments upward, is not of any credit to SU... SU did not introduce any element that was not already established... You commented a short story of absolute narrative, only for the purpose of convincing yourself... You jump from post to post commenting the same nonsense... It is sad that you have to create narratives to promote SU... Just say you like SU, instead of the BS of making up narratives that fits what's you have made up in your head.
@@fountainmedia4683Paul Adam was a graduate of SU... He brought only his expertise to JSU, not SUs style... Keep in mind, SU was a corp style marching band before the arrival of Issac Greggs... He draw his inspiration from Michigan State, Purdue U, and the Ohio State marching bands... He took marching drills from "Patterns In Motion", and falsely circulated that the drills were SUs original created drills... Man, stop with your propaganda and atone to facts... And not made up narratives.
Clearly your concern is with display, and I appreciate that... What happened to HBCU marching bands, you ask... What happened is how they are of mass influence today.
I was a member of SOD tuba player 1988 freshman
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The Golden Girls tore them stands up back then @14:20!
Ok!... The Golden Girls were it back in the late 80's

Back when it wasn’t about who was loudest but who sounded the best. Stunning footage.

Both styles have definitely changed since then. This was fun to watch.

What happened to ALCORN? They sounded really good back in the day. I've also seen my uncle's footage of ALCORN when they played at Legion field.
