Yessss Sir!... A great program rooted in profound history... Prof. Dowell Taylor provides such a (adj.) prolific/abundant history account... I so respect and admire Prof. Taylor for his craft, leadership, wisdom, and class which are all solidified in his branding... Salute to the "Summa Cum Laude of Bands", The Jackson State University's Sonic Boom of the South... A supreme performance lineage that is undeniable.

Thank you Prof. Taylor for recognizing the late Hollis Poplin, who served and performed as a JSU Twirler, alongside his twirling performance partner, Helen Ford in 1971-73... They were known as the "Ebony Twins"... Helen Ford became a Prancing Jaycette in 1973... Hollis was a very accomplished performer, and contributed a lot of performance material to the Prancing Jaycettes (J-settes) during his years, under Prancing Jaycettes/J-settes directors Shirley Middleton Blakely and Narah Dean Oatis.

Great documentary and excellent footage. Director Dowell Taylor is Jackson State University. He would make an outstanding President of the University.

This is my first time hearing of him and you can tell he has made it a personal responsibility to keep that history Alive, and it's very rich, just by talking I can tell he bleeds JSU, and just like the president of Bethune cookman a son of ccokman and brought the band and staff to where it is since the 81, and just last year became president and I felt there is no one more deserving, I definitely feel the same way about Dr. Taylor now, he is a direct product of the start of the program, and to this day continues it, even by picking the staff and preparing the next generation, I can't say enough about how pleasing it was to learn this history, as good as JSU has been all these years people need to see where it came from!

History delivered and only the way DT can! many bands have formed their signature sound, drills and marching style from Jackson State! Hopefully, Joshua continue to make even more history, memories and continue 2 keep their lineage by creating more directors and this family institutional learning and music! there is only one Jackson State University Sonic Boom of the South and maybe one day he'll even tell you how they got that name......

Thank you for this wonderful history of the Sonic Boom. I was a member from 1968 to 1971 and it was an experience I still reflect on with fond memories. Just a note: Jimmie James and Harold Haughton were both assistant directors during that period. Dr. James did some arranging but Prof did most of them. James also taught applied lower brass while Haughton taught applied woodwinds. Dr. James conducted the second concert band while Prof Davis conducted the first concert band. Still this is a great story of one of the best bands to ever take the field.

This is AWESOME! I've been waiting for something of this nature. As someone who saw The Sonic Boom as a child, I can say there are NO COMPARISONS to the precision, sound, and overall quality of this program. Not just band but PROGRAM! Hats Off JSU!! Keep It BOOMING!!!

This is simply awesome. I marched in Thee Boom 1990-91. I had the amazing experience of being one of the first ever Crabs (Freshman) to be on the dance committee. I was selected as apart of the groups that went to Hollywood and the NBA All-Star game in Charlotte, NC. I will never forget the time I spent with the “Summa-cum laude” of bands!!!!!!

Kermit Holly's son taught me band in the late 80s at Powell Junior High in Jackson Ms. The one thing I remember about Mr. Holly Jr was that he would not let us play JSUs version of "Get Ready". We had to play it just like the Temptations sang it. We hated it at the time but looking back on it, he was genius in believing it more important that we know the fundamentals of playing vs playing what we like. I love the story of the relationship between Dr. Liddell, who is my uncle, and Dr. Taylor. That was funny and was new information I didn't know.

Awesome document of the bands history you can tell he has fought to keep the legacy going that he was born into! I'm a FAMU man and always was a fan of the boom, and it's no wonder like the '100, they continue the legacy by raising up a successor that's a son of the legacy! Much respect to Sonic boom rich history, it gives me greater respect.
