You never know if you will find a gem when you buy a recording made by High School kids. Especially when the back cover is blank. There is no information to share.
I did find a few treasures on this LP. Check out this wonderful dark and dramatic track titled: Rituale by Del Borgo (Del Borgo was a prolific publisher of music for junior high and high school bands). This is a complex piece of music. The tune is sort of exotica or soundtrack-like. Great stuff!
It sounds quite exotica! I like it!
ReplyDeleteThis is from my high school about 2 years after I graduated. Joe Brice had high standards, and you should really hear the award winning Jazz Bands he had for years! Please post more, or e-mail me at newzguy@yahoo.com if you have more audio to share!
ReplyDeleteThis LP would be the only example I have found from Smoky Hill High School. Thanks for the interest!
