Music of Your Life
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Music of Your Life is a satellite network featuring the Adult Standards radio format. The broadcast originates from New York City, New York. Created by jingle writer Al Ham, Music of Your Life, now distributed by Jones Radio Networks, has approximately 175 affiliates, mostly AM stations.
The format is voice tracked by celebrity DJs such as Gary Owens from Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, former TV game show hosts Wink Martindale and Peter Marshall as well as singer Pat Boone. A typical hour of music (see below) may include a wide variety of artists, ranging from Glenn Miller to Rosemary Clooney to Anne Murray to Michael Buble.
Some stations license only the name and format, with programming being based locally at least most of the time. One of these known stations was WGUL (AM) in the Tampa Bay area, which carried the format until replacing its music format with talk in 2005.
KIXI in Seattle, Washington, KVIN in Modesto, California, WBAE in Portland, Maine, and KIDD in Monterey, California are among the more high-profile "Music of Your Life" affiliate stations.
