Description:
Before the amazing and huge-scale 125th PVGC celebration in 2018, there was a Centennial Celebration in 1993. This recording is of a 92-93 club set performed at the event, a couple combined voices songs, and finally a set of alumni solo & specialty group performances. I still have glassware from the event, but I don't remember it all that well. There must have been more (probably informal) singing with the then-current club + alumni, but I just don't remember. If you do remember, please comment. --Chris Rininger

Commentary
Yes, there was more. I have two cassette tapes of the event. Unfortunately, I don’t have a working cassette deck to transfer to the PVGCDB, but I can ship a copy of ‘SIDE THREE’ AND ‘SIDE FOUR’ upon request. I can also a send a photo of the inner cassette lining. (Full disclosure: I sang ‘You Will Be My Music’ as the first song on side three so I do remember the program!)
