7:03 I love the way the bari and bass look at each other when the bari's voice cracks- so funny

Someone please change the song title of Roses of Pikachu, to Roses of Picardy...

Good pulse.

I was there. Epic! ❤🎶💈🎶❤️

Thanks Dan, both for this and for keeping this era of song alive with your quartet. I grew up on this stuff, and (somewhere) I have some autographed LP's...... Cheers!

My all-time favorite at their best! ❤❤❤❤

How they only got 26th place is beyond me....

The leads voice is so beautiful and accurate! The melody never gets lost in the harmony! Great!

Ah yes, Roses of Pikachu. My favourite

Even when they're off tune, very rare, they sound great. Every voice knows when to shine in their singing. Perfect understanding and perfect tonality in their singing and perfect anesthetic emotions in their singing

Is this the Quartet who sang that arrangement of Mame?

I'm still trying to find the Quartet who sang Mame

I often come back to this video and still find it funny how roses of picardy is spelled as "roses of pikachu" in the video chapters

1:25 6:45

5:53 "Oh, I feel like such a fool." "You are!" Good to see humour hasn't changed much over the years.

Different Tenor. Lead looks right but sounds different. Before Boston "Common". This would have been my tenth year. Not familiar.

Mary 3:25 is a special favourite of mine with a deep personal connection and these fine men convey the best connection I have heard. 🙂

As FRED would say: Boston Common, they won in 74, 75, 78, 79 and finally 80... What were you thinking?

Curious but who is the lead? Did they not choose the lead from The Nighthawks? He's pretty awesome regardless.

literally every member of this quartet is not only incredibly good, but seem to have such fun personalities. their ability to joke with each other mid-song is really wholesome. the baritone's soft-spoken voice makes his little "solos" so much more fitting. the lead and bass are having so much fun together and clearly love performing. and that tenor... holy lord in heaven is that tenor amazing. he at first seems somewhat like the awkward one of the group but then he just chests incredibly high notes with such ease and you can see the confidence pop into his eyes. and all together, they clearly love this song and sing it with such incredible passion. such an inspirational quartet.

I was so fortunate to start my Barbershop career in the Northeastern District and introduced to the sound of the BC. I, like so many others, fell in love with their unmistakable sound. I just about wore out their albums. I had several occasions to experience the Boston Common up close at house gatherings after chapter shows etc. But my greatest experience was winning the chorus gold medal with the Dukes of Harmony chorus alongside the Boston Common winning theirs in 1980 and being there to hear this amazing performance.

Is there sheet music for this somewhere?

I’ve listened to this video too much. I’m obsessed

Wondering if anybody has a score for this?

Perfection

Bruh they finally learned how to use dynamics two years after they won 🙃

I love how they, and Boston Common, enjoyed the applause, and took real performer bows! Not ashamed to acknowledge the audience. The modern quartets stand like statues, or maybe a little nod. What's that all about? A rule change? I like the older days every bit as good! Sidebar: what would we do without these incredible baritones? Without them, only barbershop trios are left!! What kind of world would that be?

That blend. That tag. Man, oh man.

can somebody like list down the songs they sing

I remember they were a quartet on our show what a blast we had Terry was great Larry was too and Jamie and I apologize I can’t remember lead s name

Terry Clarke at 5:10 "Nice polite applause." LOL!

I worked with Larry Tully and his brother. They were the great guys and fun to be around,

Yesssssssireeee!!!

The best I've ever heard and will ever here. Thank you

The steep bangladesh delightfully reproduce because candle finally fade apropos a supreme porcupine. precious, gamy dashboard

I needed to hear Boston Common’s “Roses of Picardy” Gorgeous

This was a great song 50 years ago and it still is. Memories.

killed it.!! most terrific - THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING US ALONG..!

Sentimental favorite. Always will be. So smooth.

Hey so me and some guys at my school have a quartet, and we love getting new songs, any idea what these songs are called?

If there was an example of singing very hard, this would be it. Its all so enthusiastic and from the heart, but you can feel the absolute effort and force behind much of it.

G.O.A.T. then/G.O.A.T today!

This is what I want to listen to when someone plays their personal collection. Masterful.

So much good about this. First, a quartet who absolutely LOVES four-part harmony. It shows in their faces and in the stillness of their bodies. Second, the incredible lock-and-ring while singing with their full-throated voices. Third, amazing finesse and artistry on their phrase endings! Like a true crooner, they don't end all at the same time or on the same word sound; but the musicality of the releases is an art that has been lost in today's Melodyned perfection. Fourth and last, an arrangement that is singable by the "average Joe". I remember meeting up with Dan Jordan, Bob Gray Jr. and a bass (sorry, don't recall who) in the mid-1980s and we just said, "Marathon Medley" and we sang it as if we had seen the music. As much as I like today's stunning charts, this is an iconic arrangement that stands the test of time. Truly, a legend became a champion in 1980. Certainly one of the best ever Gold medalists. Love me some Boston Common, any time of the day or night!

Fantastic!👌💪

I come back to this when I need a BC fix. How much fun they were having...one of my three favorite quartets. (GHG and VS)

I’d like to buy the “Collective Works” (double CD) and “That Old Feeling” (1982 recordings). Is that possible? If so, would you be able to direct me to who might be selling them?

My only regret is not to have heard this quartet live. I heard Boston Concort a hash of at least two of the BC. Truly stunning Lead Tenor combo. Brilliant and funny Bass. Baritone just awesome nailed everything in an unpretentious manner. Loved them.

Wow. That was fantastic. Loved seeing and hearing Vern!

AMAZING!!!!!
