Album Notes

"I will never forget when I saw the Grand Canyon for the first time. The day is still vivid to me. There it was ~ appearing as if out of nowhere ~ one of the worlds greatest wonders. I believe the reason I enjoy singing this song so much is, that like the Grand Canyon itself, it never seems to grow old. The calm, flowing melody and perceptive words always rekindle in me the inspiring beauty I beheld on my first visit. It is my wish that “The Song of the Grand Canyon” instills in you the desire to make your own personal pilgrimage to one of Arizona’s timeless treasures ~ The Grand Canyon" .... Patty Parker

It’s a wonder to behold ~ As its beauty fills our soul ~ When we see The Grand Canyon ~ The first time
(Lyric from the song)

Produced & recorded in Nashville by Patty Parker, with music & lyrics written by her husband Frank Fara. Special thanks to Arizona artist Val Jesse for her nostalgic cover art painting depicting the era of time when the Grand Canyon became one of our first National Parks.
