I'm pleased to announce the availability of the shiny, new-and-improved Another Musical Souvenir of Walt Disney World. Today marks the end of a 3.5 year journey for me, although I may time and again post updated tracks as new resources become available.
"Another Musical Souvenir" consists of 20 MP3 files of more than 6 hours total Walt Disney World atmosphere tracks. Also included is a gorgeous, lavishly illustrated 28 page booklet that will guide you through the tracks, plus an additional 40 pages of "Expanded Notes" and annotations for those who want to know how it all came together.

If you've ever wanted to step back in time and visit the Walt Disney World of its earliest years, Another Musical Souvenir of Walt Disney World is your time machine. Each track is a flowing, aural landscape which revives the music and sounds of the Vacation Kingdom of the past.
Inside you can sit in the Central Plaza as swan boats drift by, explore the original Magic Kingdom Pirates of the Caribbean attraction, ride a Skyway bucket over Fantasyland, revisit the RCA Space Mountain, listen to Michael Iceberg play his iceberg machine and ride a monorail to the Polynesian Village for drinks.
This second version of the original A Musical Souvenir of Walt Disney World expands on the original, including more than twice the amount of material. Finally the full scope of the project may be heard, and the intended structure restored. Best of all this project comes with six "Bonus Tracks" which offer many more opportunities to include beloved Magic Kingdom music beyond the late-70s scope of the project.
This is a memory meant to be shared, and I hope that "Another Musical Souvenir" both brings back fond memories and inspires others to learn more about the terrific history and legacy of Walt Disney World.
