I felt the awesome power of marching band music for the first time about two years ago on the steps of the Low Library at Columbia. Just a bunch of kids belting out some tunes that were total thrashers.

Monica's show on WFMU highlights southern black marching bands and their inclusive funkiness. Well worth listening to some of her archives.
