OLD TIME RADIO

Masters of Melody
Recapture memories of many vintage radio programmes, some of which have disappeared into the mists of time. You can also read about the lives and careers of some of the 'men behind the music'. Although additions will be made from time to time, the emphasis will be on poorly documented artists who were prolific broadcasters as opposed to major recording artists such as Mantovani about whom much written material already exists.

Angel Radio - Havant 101.1 fm
The UK's Favourite Nostalgia Station - Snap, Crackle but No Pop!

Serenade Radio
This on-line radio station was born out of a desperate need to hear those great songs from that golden era of song writing.
Not just the occasional one-off song, lost in a sea of pop mediocrity, but all day every day. That's what Serenade Radio is here for!

RadioTimeZone.com
The radio was our link to the world.  Radio programs were broadcast into our homes daily;  into our living rooms, at our bedsides, and into our hearts. Everyone had a favorite program. Whether it was Jack Benny, or Dragnet, Beyond Midnight, or Glenn Miller, our beloved radio brought us daily episodes of sorrow, joy, music, hope, and tragedy. Our radio consoled us, instructed us, and made us laugh. As you know, before television, families like ours used to sit in their living rooms each night to listen to radio shows like; Dimension X, You Bet Your Life, Gunsmoke, The Shadow, Father Knows Best, and many others. When TV become popular in the 1950's, most of these shows went off the air, they now live on at RadioTimeZone.com.
