The first song is the “Fly The Friendly Skies of United” advertising jingle without vocals.

With all those Hawaiian songs, this was probably used on those long DC8 (and later, 747) flights over the Pacific.

This music is beautiful!

I wish they played these songs at my grocery store job.

late 2024: Seered somewhere in my subconscious are MOST of these numbers, having parents that tuned into easy listening stations a great deal of the time.

I'm from Brazil an I love this kind of music. Congratulations.

Incredible collection

Dear Hispy, this is a great compilation of easy listening which I like and appreciate. But this is not "soft tempo" or "easy tempo" or "Airline" music, pal.

Can't listen to this. Too many ads.

This music kept folks calm...No matter how upset over 'Whatever' they were🦝

VU meters aren't accurate to the music :(

Also AFN 98.7 in Frankfurt in those days

Meine Jugend. Flying to Ibiza. Several times to the US now both parents are dead. I’m over 60

Track 2 is "Sweet Gypsy Rose", by Tony Orlando & Dawn. I used to sing it in my cabaret act.

Back when flying was fun, and you could count on other passengers acting like mature adults, instead of someone who missed a dose of their daily meds

I worked for a beautiful music station in Seattle and our SCA carried music. I thought Muzak was better than our regular beautiful music from commercial disks. Certainly flowed better. Although in mono, I'd sometimes late at night would switch to the muzak output. No one noticed!

Thanks for posting this wonderful music.

I love this familiar songs,made like this relaxing.

@LuigBastardo,yes it is wrong i hope u were kidding about sid viscious.

4:30 suena muy parecido al soundtrack de little nightmares 2, el sonido que hacen las televisiones... Busquenlo, es muy similar.

By The Time I Get To Phoenix,is Great.

@denisemiller5654,Well said Denise U took the words right out of my mouth.

A generation flying from the mainland to Hawaii via jet airliners for the first time! I'm sure this music would have put them in the mood! I recall the flight in 1981 from LAX to HNL. I was 10 an fascinated by everything in the plane, including the dedicated audio feed just for my seat! This music would have definitely featured along with some radio broadcasts and flight communication. The headphones were these orange contraptions that fit like stethoscopes! I also recall...we were in the smoking section! Imagine when THAT was a good idea! Folks were being serve themed meals... loads of pineapple... everything drenched in teriyaki sauce... little packets of macadamia nuts... orchids for garnish... and more than a few mai tais being imbibed. My first kiss from a girl who was not a relative was from the Hawaiian gal who gave us lais upon landing! I felt like James Bond!

Wow that is fantastic.

The radio equivalent of Muzak was the Beautiful Music format. When the FCC curtailed AM/FM simulcasting in large and medium markets in the 1960's, station owners were faced with having to provide separate programming on their FM stations part of most of the day. Beautiful Music was a cost-effective choice since it could easily run on automation without live operators or announcers. Plus the music-intensive approach was well suited for the high fidelity stereo quality of FM. Many stations with the format became ratings leaders in their respective markets mainly due to the stations being piped through offices and stores (it was Muzak without the subscription fee albeit with commercials). Even up to the mid 1990's you could still find Beautiful Music stations on FM radio although rare by that time. The format may be history but the music remains timeless.

Holiday for strings is the flippin best!

Good

Why this music 🎶🎵 🎼 Be put on 💿 CD’s for everyone to enjoy and pass it on to other generations to learn and educated,This is so Refreshing,I grew up in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 my father was a big fan of Lawrence welk,And to this day still love every Instrumental composition I hear 👂.

I found this music, then I remembered being a kid in the 1970s, now this is all I really want to listen to. I am done with rock. This music is light-years beyond rock.

Let's hope that surviving musicians from back then can enjoy the current enthusiasm for their work as a small comfort. Best transgenerational greetings!

Real instruments played by real musicians, arranged & conducted by real humans.

vibe. . . loved muzak interpretations pf songs since i was a kid.

I do the same.

This reminds me when I was a child in the 1970s. Very relaxing.

listening to this for 15 minutes now..... not just relaxing, also triggering my creative juices.... i just wrote 17 hit songs in 15 min 😊

То, что здесь обозначено как "yes, my darling daughter" на самом деле украинская песня "Ехал казак за Дунай"

Who is Seeburg?

I was born in 1961, my music of choice. I don't understand any of the music after the 70s. I listen to this type of music in my car and home, I nap to this. This is such a breath for fresh air and a great escape from today's craziness.

And the Akai 4000 looking good too! Loved those clunky solid controls 😁. Mine still works nearly 50 years since I bought it!

This should be used like it was in the past -- people are going bonkers and maybe this could help the masses to calm down.

In love with this type of music - must be from back in my repressed memory of growing up in the 60's and 70's. "Going out of my head" amazing! I can listen to this, and other muzak like this all day. I love hearing gorgeous renditions of popular songs from my youth. And prefer without vocals. After going through so many genres of all kinds of music and enduring so much of life's challenges - this is about all I can stand to listen to anymore. Thanks for uploading this!

Отличная музыка, спокойная и приятная, исключительно для дачи😅!

👍

Great background music to listen to while doing busy work at the computer and repetitive tasks.

Thanks so much for posting this great video. From the opening notes is sweet all the way through! My dream is to someday have a reel to reel Tape deck again and return to listening to lots of great Verve label bossa nova tapes I have. I’ve been into easy listening and exotica music since about 1974, it’s one of my favorite genres of LPs & tapes to collect. HM, founder Highway Cinema

Lovely MUSIC!!!WIT too much calm n so relaxing while you LISTENIN...very thanks a lot for posting n to sharing it... greetings FROM South OF SPAIN!!!❤😊😅

I'm 60 - this used to be considered less than par, here in the 21st century muzak and television show themes beat anything being produced today. Unreal how fast creativity is degrading. Thanks for posting these; great memories.

I love this as my background music (Muzak) at work. Yes, GenX here but that shouldn't matter, this is timeless. Also, new sub!
