Band of the Royal British Marines - taptoe Breda 1988.AVI

[@0404alan]

@bgrobin66 Their helmets are known as, British Marine Wolseley Pattern Foreign Service Helmet The Wolseley pattern helmet has been the standard dress headgear for the Royal Marines, featuring a ball on top, a distinction once standard for artillerymen. This derives from the part of the Corps that was once the Royal Marine Artillery.

@TomTiet Hi thanks for that watched the vid and very good to , have looked at some of your vids as well on your channel good choice of marches . The middy is one of my old favourites and sounds superb when played by the massed bands of the royal marines especially the march HM JOLLIES .

[@MrYoTambor]

and years after every band in holland play the march royal salute and also army of the nile on competition !!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is very good for the english music writers! after that a lot of dutch marching bands play now trafalgar, gibraltar and san carlos and more !!!!!

[@bootydeal]

The first march was the bugle march "Zeebrugge" followed by the slow march "The Globe and Laurel" which is based on the tune "early one morning". This was the original regimental slow march of the Royal Marines until replaced by the slow march "Preobrajensky". The third march was an Alford classic "Army of the Nile" split by the drum static "Tarabubky" I think. The march after the drum static is "Royal Salute from the Trio" The band is the Band of HM Royal Marines Naval Home Command.

Now that takes me back - I'm the bandy-legged clarinetist at the back. I do remember we were escorted everywhere by Dutch secret agents and the rehearsals were a right laugh, but I remember the lousy breakfasts of ham and cheese more so!

[@jimyoung2188]

The slow march was the old song Early One Morning about some old girl crying cause her lover had left her in the lurch

@1948bazza Hi , thanks for that . I am a little confused as i always thought it was Per Mar Per Terram but i definitely have an old 33rpm LP that has the march in question under the tltle of Zeebrugge . The front cover shows a raider high speed launch with nine Royal Marines and HMS Ark Royal in the background on a cloudless day from 1974 on the back of the LP . ? !

Brilliant that the drummers double as buglers. The RM band is hard to match, they always turn out a pristine performance.

[@QwertyKillification]

Thank you very much! I owe you one! :D

[@uufke]

It's called Royal Salute. Based on the concert march.

[@basoosterman4278]

ik zoek en opnamen van de rijnmondband uit de jaren tachtig of zevetij jaren

[@bgrobin66]

Is there any specific history or tradition about the headgear. I never tire of watching the marine bands. Top quality professionals all.

[@midnightteapot5633]

The ball tops on the helmets are derived from the Royal Marine Artillery , who wore these rather than the spikes of the RM light infantry.

[@liverpoolparkour08]

Indeed this is Royal Salute but it is the TRIO Section of Royal Salute

[@Meljayne2]

Very stirring march.I think it is called ZEEBRUGGE in honour of a daring raid carried out by ROYAL MARINES.

[@kamau199]

Best piece is from 0:00 to 1:16
