He's almost got the hang of it! General Melchett Admin will be able to help you, but as it has been on at least a previous two MFM's in one form or another, I doubt it...... admin Hi Tom, Kaleidoscope will probably not be on the recording as it is already on 'The Final Countdown' and it would be better to put some more unreleased music on the recording of the 2007 MFM. Baaaaaaaaaaass *sharp intake of breath* Pompey Rich Does that hopefully mean that D'YSEBAHN will be on the CD? Cor! PS. Will the CD also be available for my birthday on the 29th April. Nice change if it is. admin MFM 2007 SHOULD be going to print shortly after leave. Falkland Sound went before leave and should be back waiting for us to send out. Most of the artwork is done and in the proofing stage, we are waiting for the audio and track timings. The turn around for the job at the pressing plant is 2 weeks so it WON'T be ready for the 29th unless someone has been working in very mysterious ways. It is hoped that D'Ysebahn will be on the recording complete (calm down pumpey, don't hyperventilate!). briggers BRITISH SEA SONGS It would be good if FANTASIA ON BRITISH SEA SONGS would be on MFM 2007 but I think its not is it? Havent got a live recording by the RM Band of it when was the last one made TRAFALGAR 200? Pompey Rich Wow. Just think of the effect of the buglers part on surround sound if that piece had been mixed.

My mum was just mesmerised with the drummers especially the lad in the centre of the stage in his plastic box (well I don't know who he is!), she's never seen drum sticks move so fast - and if I heard "his hands are a blur" one more time that evening................. , she's even waiting for the CD to be released! townsergeant Re: MFM 2007 EMMA wrote: My mum was just mesmerised with the drummers, she's never seen drum sticks move so fast - and if I heard "his hands are a blur" one more time that evening.................

Its a lovely compliment - nothing dodgy intended!!! She was just amazed by him - she couldn't believe someone could play the drums that well!!! bootybandy You aint seen Ffoggy yet then have you? EMMA bootybandy wrote: You aint seen Ffoggy yet then have you? Nope can say I have......... bootybandy Well....neither have I actually, I think he's gone walkabout....... admin The artwork and CD went to the pressing plant today... the CDs should be back within 2 weeks. ZedHorn just got my CD in the post... it's very lovely, nice and loud... the drummy bit's not bad.. you got your copy yet pumpy???? almost makes up for the fact that i wasn't there this year due to the 'working trip abroad' that was Cologne... admin Glad you like it Zed. They pre orders are being sent out Tuesday and here is the final track listing: Corporate - Dowrick Per Mare Per Terram - Rose Pirates Of The Caribbean - Badelt arr. Barriball (calm down Fairy) Non Excido - Jones arr. Hawkins, Piner, Lowe Chimes Of Liberty - Goldman Home Away From Home - Coulter arr. Hancock D'Ysebahn - Berger (Yes in full Pumpey!) Mount Harriet - Fenne Time for More - Watson Sarie Marais - Toonsetting arr. Dunn Home On The Range - Kelley arr. Leidzén trans. Johnson Cry Of The Celts (4 tracks) - Hardiman Vistas Latinas (4 Tracks) - Dewhurst Jerusalem - Kashif trans. Dowrick Heart of Oak - Boyce/Garrick A Life On The Ocean Wave - Russell arr. Alford Malaguena - Lecouona arr. Nestico (the encore, if you left early you won't have known it was played!) EMMA Got my copy the other day and its brilliant. Would have to say that my favourite is possibly Victory from the Cry of the Celts... guess that actually having gone to MFM means that when you listen to the CD you can picture who and what was going on on the stage as well. Well done guys! (Ps Mum upset that she can't see that drummer behind his plastic screen on the CD - bless her!")        The Royal Marines Band Service On-line Community Forum Index -> Recordings Page 1 of 1
