Hi! Thanks for visiting us at our Music Memories® website.
Ever yearn to be back in the "good old days" or to enjoy the time when
life was fairly simple? When the family sat around the table
together and the music you listened to just made you feel good?
Well, now you can travel back to that time. Relive the magic, the
music and the memories of your past on our unique radio show ... Music Memories®
with Pete Michaels & Company.
You don't need the literary genius of H.G. Wells for this time travel ...
nor the Star Ship Enterprise's transporter. You don't even need the magic
of David Copperfield. You just need to sit back and tune your radio dial
to join Pete Michaels & Company.
If you'd like to hear about the music and the memories we'll be featuring this and next week on Music Memories® with Pete Michaels and Company, simply click [ HERE ] for a preview.
If there are no stations airing the show in your area, call your local oldies radio station and ask them to inquire about Music Memories®, or send us an email to: info@musicmemories.net.
Remember yesteryear like it was yesterday as we feature the music, the memories and
highlights of the years ...
Music Memories® is broadcast in the present tense as though everything were happening for the very first time. We promise, you'll feel like you're listening to the songs that
helped make your memories when they weren't memories ... but your reality. Be sure to tune in every week and enjoy
where "it's yesterday once more" and
"the oldies and memories are new again!"
