Marriott's GREAT AMERICA musical slide show
Marriott's GREAT AMERICA musical slide show
I've just added a musical slide show to the multimedia page (http://www.greatamericaparks.com/multimedia.html). To keep the file size down, I had to make it a Windows Media file. Even so, it's a big 12 MB download.
I had mentioned a little while ago that I came across an extended version of the "maybe a great day is just what you need this year" song. I thought that it would be perfect to use as the music for a retrospective slide show. Given my injured arm, I made the slide show with one hand. So don't be too harsh with your comments! That said, I would appreciate your feedback. Enjoy! (I hope!)

Arm injury or no arm injury... that is an AWESOME show. I'm using my two good arms right now to applaud you. Well-done!!!!!!!!!!
Love the song too! Crazy thing is, I don't remember it at all! But after reading about AstroWorld and realizing how lucky we are to still have both of the Great Americas... it made me misty-eyed. Seriously.
Thanks again Steven.

Steven,
I must say that since I have joined this site a few weeks ago, I have watched your terrific slide show a number of times!!
Marriot's could have used this show for recruiting employees and advertising for sponsors in the 70's!!! Professionally done with fabulous pictures and great timing with the music!
It definitely puts a smile on my face becasue I do have many memories of Marriott's and Six Flags. The great thing is that after I view the show, I almost feel like I am there...too bad I am not! lol
Just a quick question....What year did this theme song from the slide show advertise Great America?
Thanks!
