Notes

Preliminary playlist compiled by Jay, based on a 07/2012 induction recording, and posted to Magic Music.

As per Jay: "This loop plays outside under the porte-cochère, on the monorail platform, and in the hotel's lobby and shops whenever the Grand Floridian Society Orchestra or pianist aren't playing. It can also be heard at Gasparilla Island Grill, but out-of-sync with the other locations."

Further: "All tracks were originally sourced from a private collection of 78 RPM records belonging to a former member of the Grand Floridian Society Orchestra."
