I have found few sources for this type of programming. At age 78 I remember all these good ol' tunes. In particular some of the best vocals by famous female and male artists. Nor forgetting instrumentals including jazz, dixieland, ans some big band stuff, too. As well, no commercials to distract. I especially like WQXR as my wife and I are falling asleep. We listen both on Drummond Island as well as our winter home in Asheville, NC Keep up the good work!!
