Well, I'm glad folks are enjoying it. I will pass along these thanks to my Mom, who saved the tapes all these years.

Chris, Thank you and your mother SO much for this. I also thought I'd never see this again. It actually brought me to tears, and I remembered everything like it was yesterday! Thanks!

Man that '78 group could fall back into straight line formation after a performance like nobody's business. Those were the good 'ole days.

"Attired as befit their name, the Red, White and Blue up from Homewood High School in Homewood Alabama for their first Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade..." who wrote this copy, Morrow? I like that first phrase.
