While other parks still maintain this level of superb soundscaping, often times attractions go a different route. The Jungle Cruise has a wonderful loop of of jazzy and exotic songs from the 1930's and 1940's. The caveat here is that atop these songs is the whimsical banter of radio host Albert Awol.
Though Mr. Awol's antics are really amusing, and the jokes fit wonderfully with the attraction it is fun to listen to the songs on their own terms. It's the kind of music that accidentally creeps into your subconscious, until you hear it again out of context. "Hey! That's Jungle Cruise music!"
Here are a couple favorites on the theme of the moon:
Moon Over Burma - Dorothy Lamour
Moonlight Over the Ganges - Tommy Dorsey
more after the jump...
Moonlight serenade - Glen Miller Orchestra
moonglow - Benny Goodman
Ooh I do love these songs! Also, the Tower of Terror music loop has a great mix of old favorites as well as the Sunset Blvd BGM loop. As always, thanks for sharing!!
