John Bourgeois has put together a compilation called "Marching Along" If HE doesn't know Sousa, then no one does!

Included in this marathon medley are :
The Rifle Regiment
High School Cadets
The Bride Elect
El Capitan
King Cotton
The Free Lance March
The Thunderer
Hands Across the Sea
Manhattan Beach
The Invincible Eagle
Yeah, it doesn't have Stars and Stripes, but ya gotta save something for the encore! :wink:

I'm surprised that this hasn't been suggested, but Keith Brion and the New Sousa Band always have very nice (and historically valid) interpretations. For Sousa, I would trust the Sousa expert (and Sousa impersonator).
