In 1982 Buddy Baker was a busy man, jetting around the world to record the scores for a slew of new attractions and films for EPCOT Center. For the French pavilion’s Impressions de France, Baker and other Disney personnel traveled to London to record the National Philharmonic Orchestra at the fabled EMI/Abbey Road Studios. This marked the first time a film had been produced with an entirely digital soundtrack.
And, obviously, you can’t visit Abbey Road without the requisite photo op…

*sigh* Will we ever see another park with as much original music as EPCOT had in its early years?
Tim,
Not so long as Muzak memberships are so cheap!
That is one great photo op! And 82IF! Pretty sly, not to mention witty. Nice.
Glenn Barker and Dave Spencer are pretty swell guys. I never met the others.
