INTRODUCTION

"Tonight, we present a celebration of American Freedom! Our Salute to Sacramento is a tribute to the rich history of the River City. Our Pyromusical combines narration, music and fireworks - choreographed and synchronized electronically.
We've put them all together to tell a story. It's a story of courage, determination and victory ... a true story of American freedom.
The settlement that became Sacramento celebrated July 4th for the first time in 1847. Tonight, KSAC dedicates its first July 4th Pyromusical to the Sacramento of today, and to the people that make it such a great place to live!"

BACKGROUND

This is a copy of the 1985 "Mix Master", before the commercial and closing announcements were added.
It was encoded from the original 15IPS two-track stereo master (stored tails-out with paper leader!) and the fidelity is exceptional.
Of particular interest is the opening "Sky Sorceress" music, written and performed just for this Pyromusical by talented Sacramento musician Ray Elzey.
This was the first and only July 4th show presented by KSAC 97 FM (formerly KROY-FM) and paid attendance was just under 30,000.
