I really hope there is a series with david hume in the future, lovely podcast.
Not sure it will happen due to David’s contract with BBC, we will definitely do another episode together though
@@MadetoParade I was talking to him yesterday about it, I understand though, maybe after his contact ends you could get him and tim mcgarry on 🤔 I can't wait to see the next episode btw.
Join a pipe band lads. Learn real drumming. This is basic but fair play and good start to drumming.
Lisa's favourite song, "Absent Friends", just ordered her CD
Nice try, you’ll have to guess again - appreciate the support for the episode, thank you
Quality review on a quality band , I hope Mo and Gareth are pleased at this review, from an auld mick!
Brilliant episode
Love the playing
Can't believe you have never heard Scottish Emblem before Glenn, look up the Band Of The Scots Guards playing it up The Mall you'll never listen to a flute band play it the same again
Scarborough Fair & If i could in 1980 played by Pride Of The Myle was another level of genius. Untouchable and played by a vast amount of bands from hearing Pride Of The Myle. A band well ahead of it's time back in the 80s. Nothing to touch them for me Glen from 1980 until 1990. I was gutted to hear they stopped marching.
Next tune up in the series is Scarborough fair!
where do you buy them usbs
Contact the bands on Facebook and someone will help you out there
The regimental band recording is a fantastic listen thoroughly enjoyed it and the beautiful wooden case in which it comes is second to none.
Re the regimental band recording and you touched on it, the amount of tracks, personally my opinion is while they were excellent in my view the lack of tracks makes the price a bit excessive, though I love their music I’d buy it anyway (and do actually have it), but I think lack of tracks vs price takes a bit away from it. Other than that it’s a great listen just like the op one.
I had a band tape when I was younger king William was on the cover side 1 had the young calvay and songs where on side 1 and side 2 think Albertbrige where on side 2 so wish I still had this 1
Hi all what about perhaps the best band of all Sharpshooters East Belfast
I’m sure they might make an appearance in the series at some point
Great to see something different
Children's love was a brilliant tune.
I've been a bandsman from 1980 and have to say Pride of the Shore are one of the most improved bands I've seen. As Glen said they are a tight tidy unit and solid in all areas. Fair play to them.
Glenn are you talking about a Return parade from Boucher?
To be honest my thoughts were about changing the end venue to there purely for festival type idea as it’s a venue that has hosted high profile, mass attended events. There are a lot of options that could be looked at, I also mentioned keeping the current outward route the same and let districts do the return in their own areas. At the moment I have no preferred option, just generating ideas that could be considered
@@MadetoParade here's another point Glenn, there's too many people on the Road that shouldn't be, ie people pushing prams and the blue bag brigade in between Bands and Lodges, it's looks awful mate, thanks for replying
Glenn, the time we are now allocated at the break in Belfast is getting ridiculous, I think it needs to be seriously addressed ?
It’s definitely one of a number of issues that need to be discussed
Fantastic episode..would love to see king billy sail down from Carrick into belfast lough and all the beacons lining the route.Fantastic idea as is your voucher Rd one btw 👏
It would be quite the spectacle and a real sense of re-enacting history, hopefully we can get funding together to make it happen.
Blackscull changed the band scene for ever and still doing it
always listened to Lisa , what a singer
I paraded with Omagh Lol 850 on the 1st July -I was in the biggest junior lodge in NI in the late 60s which folded ,so was glad to see a new junior lodge in Omagh . I enjoyed this discussion as it brought back the memories of getting my band uniform ready or my lodge regalia ,my dad dropped dead during the 1st July parade in 1985 and my big brother passed last year was in same lodge-so all those memories came back when I marched in Omagh last week as a lodge Member behind my old band ,Blair Memorial. When in the juniors we had a football team ,table tennis in winter , disco on a Saturday-we need to be developing youth and being active in recruiting-the loyal institutions should be returning to becoming the glue that holds the PUL community together.
Keep up the great work lads
The thoughts of the beacons up Belfast Lough is definitely something that should be perused. If not by the orange then certainly by different re enactment committees. I know Darren from living in the same street as a child. Twelfth morning was always a busy one with 3-4 band members leaving the street at the same time and him heading off in the suit with the collarette. Even know time has moved on though it’s good to see traditions haven’t. Great episode this one and a great way to reflect on how family members before us paved the way for us to carry it on. Those thoughts alone make all the blisters and cramps with while.
Nice meeting you in holytown orange hall and robert says thanks for kind words about the meal
Good to meet you all as well, hopefully we will see you all next year
You too
no surrender even in the usa
Hit the nail on the head. Yes it's a day to celebrate but its so much more too. I always remember my father and grandfather who were in the orange back in the day and no longer here. As a bandsman I pull on my uniform on the 12th morning and memories come flooding back it can be a very emotional day. But we keep doing it for the joy it not only brings us but also the spectators who gather to watch. Wishing you a peaceful and enjoyable day.
Thank you, with all that will be said about the weekend in the mainstream media, its important to have that human side of things presented.
Done benidorm parade, the guys who run it aren't in it for loyalism, just money, takin money collections and lining there own pockets, think before you go, stay at home and support proper loyalist culture , 👍🇬🇧
Brilliant, hitting the right subject, only thing is the orange order won't spend money to support their own organisation, they've got millions in the bank but don't back unionist communities /loyalist, get behind us or lose us, enjoy the 12th, God bless❤
Lots to work through and hopefully there will be more collaboration in the very near future, we all have something to contribute
This brings back schooldays memories and of scouring the Loyalist stall at markets for tapes. The 'big' tapes of the mid late 80s that immediately spring to mind were: Pride of The Myle 1 and Myles better. Between those tapes and Blackskull you could wonder how many Ulster bands were influenced by them? Pride of The Village - Blood and Thunder probably one of the first tapes to come out? Cloughfern Young Conquerors - Thunder and Lightning. Glenmavis Sons of William. Everyone bought purely for THAT recording of The Great Escape alone. Shankill Protestant Boys and Young Calvay Volunteers, the title of which now escapes me "HI DIDILEE DEE!!
The Black Skull Glasgow really are the daddies certainly our side of the Irish Sea.
Enjoyed that throw back till the 80’s Glenn. Remember writing out the tunes and playing them in a mates garden. I guess, some bands lead, and some follow. They were definitely one of the bands that set the standards.
Keep up the great work lad
Running bear, on the haunting sounds of the newtownards protestant boys.
Morris Brown, lovely genuine guy,great to see him in the band scene again.
this album still gets played in my car , never get bored of it 👍🏻
The Myles tapes , Glenmavis , the Skulls tapes.
Keep watching the series you won’t be disappointed
A band I'm really struggling to find any online content on is a band my great grandfather was in called the wishaw purple heroes. Also a tune that id love to hear about is mud cabin purely as it was his tune and bands don't play it as much now and whenever a band passes that does play it always brings the family to tears
Anything from the Skull. Also Mohicans Drumderg
I think you’ll be happy with the tunes that appear in the next episodes of this series
Keep up the great work
I remember the first time I saw the Skull. Early 90's in Scarva. Totally different in style and appearance to most of the other bands that day. They were fantastic. On other tunes I can think like this Black Beauty stands out, bands used to play it a lot, now it is rarely heard. Drumderg and Last of the Mohicans is another. Everyone was scrambling for the notes when they first started playing that one.
The tape that i couldnt stop listening to back then was the Pride of the Myles tape. At this present time i would highly recommend finding Motherwell Old Comrades on UA-cam. A couple of their old LP' s are uploaded and are superb.
The Myle are up next in the series - I have a Motherwell old comrades album digitised quality isn’t amazing though
I had the album which shows them marching in a blue uniform at a parade, the jig time i never heard any band play that before they set the standard in Glasgow and and still do.The skull and the Ycv were formed around the same time the calvay had a great tape out around 83.Ycv did march with the orange order when first formed then after a decade or more they stopped so we rarely saw them unless it was the Abod, another bands anniversary or in belfast.The skull are excellent coming out glasgow green at the boyne celebration they bounce up road with a swagger.The lord carson parade in london done by the Pride of the Rock is tremendous good band with tremendous discipline, the biggest compliment they got was from a ex grenadier guardsman on a anti Ulez demo who thought they were a military band.
I've never been in a band, just a fan, so can't really speak with authority. The Great Escape was a tune you would have heard regularly standing as a child on the Lisburn Rd in the early 70's. Black Skull certainly gave it a different perspective. The record that introduced me to more of a marching band style was "Marching with the Pride of Whitehill" from Bangor, which may have been even earlier.
Hi Alan, i did mention that other bands played it and that Ballyhalbert FORFB recorded it, although at that time I wouldn’t have been aware of it, as a 10/11 year old lad at the time I hadn’t heard too many bands playing it. After the Skull tape it seemed to be played by just about everyone. The pride of Whitehill recording would have been 1978 but I wouldn’t have known about it then.
the black skull was the best band back in the 80#s and 90's when they were coming down the road u could tell the black skull was come 5 or 6 band back if i not mistaken there was only 10 and 3 side drumers
Enjoyed that Glenn. I dont think it had an effect on the band scene but my own band bringing in “Josey Wales” really opened my eyes to the posibilities of playing different types of tunes.
Glad you enjoyed the episode, and great to hear about your band bringing in tunes that helped expand your perspective on what was possible for bands to play.
Scarborough Fair
It’s on the list
@@MadetoParade cheers Glenn
@@robbiewright9145pride of the myle tune
Sarry were potty when I was a lad but it was the crowd they took it was an army of headcases,in parks at the juvenile or big walk they used to fight with anybody but mainly the Govan team 😂.I liked the Ycvfb,Camlachie,Dennistoun Rangers fb's a lot of the guys drank in Duke st,the Pride of the Myle were classy I also remember the Pollok Loyalists,Mcewen memorial ,Young protestant Volunteers from sandyhills were good.The Pollok Loyalists with grey berets on plus the Black Skull all came out around the same time it seemed.So many good bands not around now the Alex Norwood were massive the Drumchapel(still going) Orange and Purple were big in the 70s, I remember them and the Sarry from the film just another Saturday.The bands are being told they can't play certain tunes the Billy boys is one tune.Lanarkshire,Central Scotland has a lot of good bands.Certain social problems hurt the band scene throughout the last 40 years be aware mate.
Our families have lived across the 4 countries and more importantly will continue to do so ! Sectarian hate has to go ! We all know how the state came to be , we all have pride in the diaspora ! Our Kingdom ruled the world and we must get back to that ! Those who were able to divide us are busy now rallying against the beautiful hard working decent peoples of the Arabain world , again they used sectarian divide to split them ! Are your m.ps wanting money for their bolthole in Africa ? The fraudsters are out , demanding money for uniforms for drugs ! For division and hate , for toxicity and suspicion ! Get the trash out ! Just say no !
Keep up the great work lads
A great discussion highlighting what's good about unionism. the question I haven't heard is why do we need so many different shades of unionism? and also, the difficulty of having to choose one to vote for.
Something for us to look into, maybe try and get a panel of guests on to discuss that, thanks for the suggestion.
Very interesting and informative conversation. After watching the BBC leaders debate tonight, it's vital unionists in East Belfast vote for DUP leader Gavin Robinson. His performance was very strong and statesman like .Unionism cannot afford to lose a politician like that. I'd urge all unionists to vote, and vote for the unionist who can win in areas it is close with the Alliance party.
