Coming from a Miles alumni this is the best I ever heard this song being played by a HBCU. I wish all bands can play at this tone such as FAMU and BCC. This the sound that made me wanted to play an instrument. Now every band is blasting loud, trumpets screaming on every song, drum section over powering the entire band and there aren’t any more wood wind players. Please let’s go back to this tone sound and volume 🤗
Mister PrettyBoi1911 as a band alumni from the SWAC I definitely agree but I say now more than ever it’s a time and place for the CRANKING and screaming trumpets .. pop tunes yeah classics like this keep it simply classy and show bandsmenship with most importantly musicianship ✊🏾🎼
A Thomas we’ve all been in your exact position at one point and one time ✊🏾 it’s up to you to keep our programs alive Young one!! I am from Mississippi so I’m your neighbor I marched SWAC but went to every high school band camp famu had
There will Never be another 100. EXCELLENCE in musicianship at its finest...we've been waiting to FAMU to bounce back and here they are ladies and gentlemen; the Standard
Ahhh yes. I was an undergrad the year the Hundred first performed this on the field around 40 years ago. It was a medley that also included "Boogie Wonderland" by the Emotions. ***Joe Bullard voice*** "Often Imitated, Never Duplicated."
I keep listening to this because it’s just SO GOOD. Trombones ON point Woodwinds reppin perfection No drag or confusion from the rhythm section section ❤️ Just absolutely wonderful
This is arranged and sounds so good. The woodwinds are very clear. It shows that every song a band performs does not have to loud and overloaded with brass. Great Job!
Famu ate this song up!!! This is the best I have heard In The Stone played. I would love there to be an #InTheStone challenge where all the HBCU's play this song, or just bands in general.
I just found this, and is it EXCELLENT. Such a full sound from the entire group, playing a very tight arrangement. I love at 1:58 when it circles back with the opening notes!
Here from the 2006 rendition they did where they rushed the tempo up a little bit. It still amazes me how FAMU has got this one so dialed in. Literally one sound.
The person filming the band is right-handed, because they keep showing the right hand side of the band more than the all. IJS. This band sounds wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
I love how the same year this was recorded and played Philip Bailey was invited to USC to play with that band "In The Stone" 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️😭😭 it sound so watered down. FAMU arrangement can't be touched
We learned it from guys of the PHENIX HORNS!! EWF Horn section....they came to our first January Camp....big dudes in furs with gig bags...our arranger was there audio engineer...they broke it down for us and by Sunday afternoon....we where ready to go....they shook all of our hands and left...WHAT A WEEKEND!!
That’s was the best I heard In the Stone played since Drumline lol
Famu was the one that studio played in the stone in drumline lol
Famu was not the band that played in the studio....It was actually the band that was in the movie
@@MARCHING100PAPARAZZI Correct. Southwest Dekalb High School played In the Stone in Drumline.
It was Sarj arrangement in the movie though lol

Great comments. I'm a high school 'band-head' from New Orleans. This sound is 'clean' and not brass-heavy. Best I've heard as well.

You crazy, listen to BCU INTRO, YOU CRAZY!!!!
Coming from a former sonic boomer, this sounds amazing. Clean, balanced and very articulate. 👍👍
Wen i say FAMU is the only band that can play "any" song & make it sound like the actual recording. ......& that's coming from a BOOM fan👍👏
Lord have mercy, I was was captivated at tone, articulation, clean, and clear sound. Why can't all bands be like this? This is musicianship.
I feel sorry for people who didn’t attend an HBCU.
Me too!
Like me...I am sure I missed a great experience and of course the band
Yes indeed
I sincerely regret not working harder in school to have better grades to attend one
No worries over here. That’s what UA-cam is for 😊
BETWEEN THEIR GOSPEL CHOIR AND THEIR MARCHING BAND THERE ARE SOME SUPREMELY TALENTED PEOPLE AT FAMU.
There will Never be another 100. EXCELLENCE in musicianship at its finest...we've been waiting to FAMU to bounce back and here they are ladies and gentlemen; the Standard
This is so fire! 9 days in and they sound like that! Great year to be in that number!
Gotta be at least 20 flutes, i heard them all, very clean FAM👏🏽 Dr. Lee would be proud 👍🏽
Piccolos....the 100 only marches Piccolos
@@ccreeves6418 wow, pocket instruments were screaming!
Lol...never heard them called pocket instruments...lol...well call it what ya want....yup, we chirp!. Thanks for the shout out. Be blessed!
Cc Reeves we definitely CHIRP!
Sound like I’m listening to the radio.
Ahhh yes. I was an undergrad the year the Hundred first performed this on the field around 40 years ago. It was a medley that also included "Boogie Wonderland" by the Emotions.
***Joe Bullard voice***
"Often Imitated, Never Duplicated."
We still did that medley in 2000.
From a Marching 101 Alumni F'91.... The 100 is well on it's way back!

I keep listening to this because it’s just SO GOOD.

My all time favorite song from Earth Wind and Fire. Thanks FAMU. 🎶💯
This has me in my feeling driving down this highway! Band sounds amazing! This is my all time favorite marching band tune.
This is arranged and sounds so good. The woodwinds are very clear. It shows that every song a band performs does not have to loud and overloaded with brass. Great Job!
Sounds good FAMU! Look forward to seeing you all this season.
Cleannnn asF!!! Its all about musicianship and the arrangement. This IS the best I've ever heard a marching band perform this song.
Famu ate this song up!!! This is the best I have heard In The Stone played. I would love there to be an #InTheStone challenge where all the HBCU's play this song, or just bands in general.
This is the best I’ve ever heard this group sound. Very tasteful, balanced, and not over played.
I believe FAMU will officially be back to over 300 in 2020. This sounds amazing!!!!
Smh that sound is ridiculously good. Sweet Jesus
They are on point for sure... very crisp and beautiful...🔥
Those piccolos are cutting through !!!!
Great balance and articulation. Would make Dr. Foster and White very proud.
Yes! All this melodic goodness ❤❤
My God y'all sound good,no hate here at all coming from a SCSU "Marching 101" alumni.
I just found this, and is it EXCELLENT. Such a full sound from the entire group, playing a very tight arrangement. I love at 1:58 when it circles back with the opening notes!
the clarity and that ending
YESSSSS!!! Its marching band season. I'm glad it's back. This sounds great!
