Oh, my gosh. Yes! Had forgotten about that. In the seventies, all the moms in my neighborhood stayed home. Can remember them all having music on during the day. As you went to friend's houses, there was a lot of this. The very young mom's had stuff like The Carpenters, etc... What memories. Everything seemed orderly.

Back in the 70’s an older Aunt my sister and I stayed with had this stuff playing all the time. I found it so peaceful that when I was 13 in the early 80’s I found an AM channel that played it. I’d come home from the stress of middle school and junior high and take a nap to this type of music. I agree with another commenter, a lot of suburban moms in the 70’s had this playing in the house. Good times.

I'm 73 yo retired RN in HUD low income housing and sheltering in place. I have a BA in Voice and need this to keep me company. It's wonderful!

I use to listen to this with my transistor radio under my pillow. I would fall asleep to this music nightly. Man, did I go through batteries. Never the less, when I listen to this I'm 18 again. Thank you.

If heaven had background music it would sound like this!!!

I’m 71 years old and grew up on the Jersey shore. I was a teenager in the 60s and remember that my mother kept the radio in our home tuned to this kind of music. I loved it then and it’s my fave genre today. It was called elevator music back then, easy listening now. I don’t care what they call it, I still love it.

My mom called it "semi-classical" music. I see why: because there was often the use of an orchestra in it's production. Interesting description.

As a true optimist, even I struggle to see good in these days, approaching 2024. I usually look forward, and am at the point right now, that looking back feels happier. I miss common decency, respect, warm greetings, and service with a smile. I miss disagreement without being offended by everything. I miss not knowing all of the bad news in every corner of the earth, but knowing my neighbors. I miss safe town squares, pretty dresses, and manners. If only for a few moments, this music puts me there. Thank you

What a wondrous time it must have been to be unconscious of the world and focused on pure satisfaction. I've been so long without the feeling, but this music takes me there. It really takes me there. The times are out of sight, but still in my mind.

There were both AM and FM stations that played these easy listening instrumentals 24/7 back in the day. Thank you for this video, this music reminds me of my mother's kitchen.

My wife passed about 6 months ago. Music has been a solace for my soul. Especially this type of music, big bands and Amira from South Africa. It never seems to get easier and I don't think it will but music helps and realizing you are not alone.

Now that your wife is gone you can know that you have an eternal family that will guide you, maybe to meet your beloved wife again someday in a much better place. Stay in prayer and The Lord will bring you The Peace you need to get through this life; aling with all of the wonderful good memories of her. May our Father GOD, The Son, & The Holy Spirit be with you, Sir.

Back in the 60s during the pop revolution I argued with my parents to listen to pop. Instead now that I am 72 yo, I just spent a relaxing hour with this music and a novel.

Reminds me of sitting in the waiting room of our family doctor's office. Back when Doctors ran the practice of medicine and not MBAs.

This is Great Music.... I can sit here and read on the net and have the music going in the background. All I need now is a woman that appreciates the same kind of music I do.

Hello dear, how are you doing today?

I was raised in L.A. in the 70's. As a youngin', during my naps, the little clock radio in the kitchen would be tuned to KJOI FM 99...playing this type of music. It was soothing, but even more so, it taught me about melody. I remember I tended to, not just listen to the "surface" sounds, but really focused on how each instrument played off, around and with each other. I had no average ear. At age 8 or 9 years , Steely Dan's "Deacon Blues" was my favorite song. Thanks for the upload 😀 and the memories. 🎶

60s and 70s were the golden ages of this planet. I'm 15 years old, and I wish, I had lived in the 60s and 70s.

Yes. We'd put on a rock n roll station while Mom was in the back of the house. Just to mess with and antagonize her. Kinda mean when I think about it now, but she took it in stride. She was a "housewife". Dad passed in 2001 and Mom barely survived Covid at the end of 2020 (after following all the rules). Would give anything/everything to go back to my childhood for one year. To see my parents young and healthy and both alive together. To relive everything I took for granted.

Thank you, Brings back memories of a simpler and better time!

Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s, my dad kept the HiFi on the easy listening station in our living room. That’s how I learned pop music, only these instrumental versions. I used to record on my cassette recorder my favorites. Imagine my surprise to hear the vocal originals later. What a time warp this is and somewhat haunting.
