@disneydanny2 I'd like it to return, total hats off to Greg Smith for remaking the soundtrack, but it dosent feel the same, in Japan its a hit, but here is mix feelings I think, if only Don Dorsy could remake the soundtrack with the same feel as the old one that would be awesome, if the original soundtrack was to be used again the parade choreographers would have a cow...
i hope that when the parade returns to Anaheim, rather than slap the generic DEP title on it ithink they should call it the "Disney Parks Electrical Parade"
@fjdxguitar yes indeedy it is. they had to tweak the announcement a little bit since the floats are from Disneyland, and the announcements were edited together from a couple sources it's easier to tell by hearing the closing announcements. it sure u nice hearing these as opposed to the ones Bill Rodgers did for the parade's first return to Floriida over a decade ago.
@disneydanny2 thanks for the reply, i didn't knew that Rodgers did the announcement during the '99-'01 parade run, the reason was that i expected to hear Don Dorsey doing it (in fact past December when i went to magic kingdom, i didn't knew who did it), it was only comparing this announcement with the Disneyland one from the Fantasmic! CD that i realized it. These things aside, great mix geeker.
Once again, well done! I love that you have the underliner under the units that don't actually have it for whatever reason...it sounds much better with the underliner.
Just got confirmation from Don, this was recorded by Greg Smith & produced by Bruce Healey

I don't understand why they can't release a soundtrack with the underliner playing the entire time like it does in the actual parade...?

@mastromjm I feel the same way as well, why WDW fades out the underliner track by the time Pete's Dragon rolls around is beyond me...

@Geeker1982 didn't Tokyo do the same thing?

@Geeker1982 Agreed. Maybe a CD set of all of the music from the early years to today's version with photos and commentary.
