Musicians almost have to have a feel for it to achieve the desired effect. Each march contained herein captures both excitement, showmanship, and even a certain degree of comedy that is associated with this style. Listening to these brings back a by-gone era of bearded ladies, roller coasters, and kettle corn. If you play this regularly, you may even begin to smell the peanuts roasting....

]]> By: Samuel Stephens http://mmafavorite.com/screamers/comment-page-1/#comment-701 Samuel Stephens Tue, 15 Dec 2009 12:19:37 +0000 http://mmafavorite.com/screamers/#comment-701 This is an incredible CD. Talk about variety and non-stop march action! I DO NOT recommend blasting it at full volume to annoy the neighbors. Serious lawsuits could result. <br />First note that Sousa is not on here at all: Frederick Fennell and the Eastman Wind Ensemble have done a separate disc dedicated solely to Sousa called "Fennell conducts Sousa", which I myself, have reviewed. <br />The main march composers on this collection are Karl L. King, Henry Fillmore, and Edwin Franko Goldman. I can't think of a single march that I didn't like on this CD, though my favorites would have to be the Guadalcanal March (from the "Victory at Sea" soundtrack by Richard Rodgers), "Robinson's Grand Entrée" a wondrous circus march by King, and "Onward-Upward" by Edwin Franko Goldman. <br />The only non-American march on here is Kenneth J. Alford's "The Mad Major", and that is certainly no sin. <br />Five stars for this All-Star disc, rollicking, loud, and absolutely fun. Once again I would remind you to please be moderate in your enthusiasm: don't annoy the neighbors!

They demonstrate the classic Fennell sound, which most people love and some think over the top. But this is music to go over the top for. The recording quality is not bad at all. Apparently, there has been some cleanup in the digital transfer. <br /> <br />Some of the marches are sublime and some are trash. Doesn't matter. Just listen and enjoy.

All tracks are played on the ride from the “Screamers” section of this CD.

Play it at home and relive your holiday at the park.

Excellent vintage circus music. Well worth the money.
