• "Just beautiful muuuusiiiic ..."
  I was all of three years old when WRFM came on the air & became one of my musically eclectic dad's three radio stations. The other two were WNCN & QXR, which were (QXR still is!) classical. Besides our church hymnal, and all the other interesting stuff he brought home from record stores in the city, these were my major musical influences until I gained some independent control over what I heard on a daily basis. You can imagine the joyful nostalgia collections like yours are bringing me from deep in the best and nicest parts of a childhood that often wasn't otherwise so nice. Quite a trip. Thank you forever.

  • Thank you so much for your response. We are all enjoying this walk down Memory Lane.

• Great collection,Jason. I have that FM dial card in my desk drawer.

  • Thanks. I miss Beautiful Music on the radio. Those were good times.

    • Jason, "the good old days" is no cliche. Those were good times, and we who were lucky enough to work in radio helped create them. Fortunately, there is internet radio that reminds us of our good old days. We old people aren't grumpy or crabby. We've just learned to ignore peer pressure, think for ourselves, and fearlessly express our opinions.

      Here are a few Beautiful Music stations I like:
