    My dad was a cab from way, way back and my brothers were in the Muchachos. I cry when I hear the old music and see the old marching formations. The Cabs will always be in my blood and I miss them all so very much!

      I feel like Karen, when I hear the Cabs were and still are an iconic corps. When I hear that drum line, Off the Line and the musical arrangements it brings back so many good memories of what was the golden years of the real Drum Corps!! Thank you for the many thrills and memories!! Long live the Cabs

      I was at that show as a teen age kid & didn't know there was a sr. Corps category @ the Am. Region's show. Was back behind the big green wall.
      I seem to recall that one of them had a heart attack @ the end of the program & they took him off in an ambulance but he didn't make it.
      It was EXTREMELY hot & humid that night.

    Simply THE BEST of THE BEST drum corps show ever. The percussion blends so well with their fabulous hornline - wonderful arranging. I'll never forget this show. I can tap my feet to this music unlike most of the music these days. I'm OK with living in the past and enjoying the drum corps of old. That said. the corps of today are pretty darn awesome with incredible professional talent too. . . . . but I always come back to the Cabs and Bucs of the 60's.

    High Stepping and full arm swing their legendary trademark, what a memory. I was in the stands watching the show.
    This was really awesome drum corp days and ones that will never be forgotten, the gentleman that took most of these videos were from his workplace video equipment.
    I marched with the Emerald Statemens from Rochester, New York and the following year joined St. Joseph's Of Batavia.

    1975 - West Point Halftime show (Army vs. N.Carolina) ; Back field getting ready to wheel into the Flamenco Front ; The corps of Cadets on their feet applauding as we crossed the field .................. still get goose bumps remembering that sound throughout Michie Stadium, Great crowd response and we increased the volume by 10 horns ............. great memory.

    My dad was 3rd in the snare line...wonderful memories of how it was and how I feel it should be..they had inspections then and the marching and maneuvering was precise....favorite memories.... my vacations were built around competitions and I loved the warm ups..especially the Town & Country in Wildwood Crest before the State Competition..fun times and the songs are in my brain for all the great reasons. Perks we always got into Giants games free cuz they were playing the half time show.rump rumr rump !!!

This allows me to see what I remember watching live as a child. My sister shared this with me today and we watch on what would have been his 92nd birthday. Thank you!

      In my opinion your dad was the best drum major ever. He had total control of the Caballeros, and hundreds of thousands of people throughout the United States and possibly the world looked up to your father he was a great man missed by all of us. Even though I competed against the Caballeros many times in the Years 1964 through 1968 with the Long Island sunrises, I always respected the Caballeros, and always felt privileged to compete on the same competition field. May your father rest in peace. God bless all those that have passed on.

    One of the best drum and bugle corps ever. I'm so glad I got to see them perform in person. My corps, The Chicago Cavaliers won this show on the junior corps level, and I think the Caballeros won on the senior corps level. The show took place in Boston, Massachusetts, in Fenway Park. I played snare and still play.

    WOW! I grew up in New Jersey. Was around Drum Corps growing up and always was and will be a "Cabs" fan. This is what Drum Corps is supposed to be like. Starting with bringing the American Flag on the field. No 3 valve horns, etc. Just like at the M&M with this video. No field lines to go by. They were just awesome to watch! Every time I hear Cherry Pink I get goosebumps. It was my father's favorite Cabs Song. He always talked about "Jimmy D.". See you in Septemer?

    Hi Jack, I am guessing that Bob and Greg (Smith) were in the Muchachos between 1955 and 1960. This is just a guess on my part, because I was very little and I don't remember. I was born in 1957 and we moved from Hawthorne in 1961. I am sorry that it took me so long to respond, but the only person who would remember is my mother and she is in the hospital at the moment. It would be nice to know if you remember them. Thanks for contacting me! It's really great to remember old times.
