 Great cadence, disliked the background drums September 19, 2008
As a former Marine, I endorse this motivating, dedicating, memory making album from #1 to #34. Brings back so many memories. This album motivates me to keep running strong! "1 mile, no way. 2 mile, no sweat. 3 mile, getting there. 4 mile, ooh rah! 5 mile, oh yeah!! PAIN! In my side - I don't care, I like it there..." LOL
Only aspect I don't care for is the beat in the background - some synthesizer or something running drums to keep the beat or something. NOT needed! The Marines do JUST FINE running the cadence and keeping time.
OOH RAH, Semper fidelis!
 USMC Run Cadence Vol 2 June 9, 2008
This is a great CD to have in your MP3 collection for running. Was at PI in 1994 - 1st Bt. D Co. (Plt 1161) and this is the real deal. I have all 3 volumes; all are great! I personally like this volume best.
Time travel for an Ex-Marine January 24, 2008
I've been out of the Corps for 23 years and I haven't run a mile since my tour ended. I quickly learned in the Corps that running in formation, and while singing cadence, was much, much easier than doing it on my own.
After 23 years, I finally decided it was time I did a little bit of running. I bought this CD, ripped it to MP3, put it on my iPod, stepped outside my door and did a 3.5 mile run. I only stopped because I arrived home, not because I was tired. This stuff is like magic.
I don't know if it will have the same effect on everyone that it has on people who were actually in the Marine Corps, but for me, it was like a time machine that brought me back to 1985.
a good bit of kit August 18, 2007
I'm a drill instructor in the New Zealand Navy, we don't have a Marines down here but these are the best cadence songs every, with a slight modification have already got the trainees running to them, thanks to the guys from the USMC, FRIE IT UP
Great June 1, 2007
It's a very good album of cadence. Though, tracks 15-19 are incorrectly titled.
Get the other albums to complete your cadence needs. They total 87 tracks. It's very nice for people who want to learn a few new cadence. Sure, people may think you're a bit off if you listen to it in your car on an 8 hour drive and know all the words, but hey.
