Some Young people don’t get it, the pops and scratches are part of the whole experience. Back then you could tell it was your record by the scratches because they had become part of the music.
Was a little kid in those years. Absolutely every office, store, medical waiting room, played this. A friend even lived in an apartment building that piped muzak in every apartment.
"Miss Turner, take a letter... To the General Staff: Concerning Dress Code. Due to changing fashions and greenhouse gases, our office will allow tasteful miniskirts worn with a blouse and jacket."
It's a pleasure to listen to the easy sounds my parents used to play on their big console stereo when I was very young. I've been looking for easy listening from this era for awhile now. So glad I found your Seeburg recordings!
I imagine playing this on some broken down record player in the wake of an earth shattering apocalypse, listening to sounds that bear no resemblance in any way to the world of my new reality.
Back in the late 80's my friend would play a loop of this music and lock down the Mike on the CB radio just to piss off some of the locals on their favorite CB Channel....Oh you should of heard them scream and swear!
Justin Tyme 😂🤣🚛😠$&#?! I Can Only Imagine 😉, me personally, I like to relax at the end of the day with it brings back some good memories of when I was a kid.
Peter, this record brings a lot of enjoyment to me as well as my mother. The many less familiar songs are delightful. We don't mind the scratches. Many of my records have nicks, pops and scratches.
Don't clean this up! It's the whole point of being "retro"! It sounds like this is being played on a record player from the 60's! Love it! "Thanks for the memories!"- Bob Hope
This music is so bizarre. It reminds me of when I was a an unruly 6 y/o running around in FedCo in 1972 and there was no security back then. My mom use to wear a wig back then just like all women over 30. Only women in their 20's didn't wear a wig. They all had hair but for some reason fashion compelled them to wear wigs. That's so weird when I think of it now.
My Mom never wore a wig. She went to the beauty shop every 2 weeks to get that platinum blond foot high beehive. Plus sleeping with curlers and bobby pins and pink hair tape for spit curls. Torture for fashion. lol
Not weird at all. In the late '50s, women who were young in the 1920s-30s were aging and still wearing their short, flat, tightly curled hairstyles. To young women in 1958, nothing seemed "older" than flat, greasy, short hair-so the bouffant styles became popular. Longer, cleaner hair fluffed up and arranged in softer styles looked young, fresh, new and HEALTHY. As the '60s progressed, a bouffant style or elaborate updo was a "must" for every well-groomed woman. However, these were very difficult styles to achieve, involving setting lotion, hot rollers and hairspray. By the mid sixties wigs were becoming popular as a fast, inexpensive way of achieving the bouffant look without the hassle or damage to hair. Don't know why it's so hard for people to get out of their radicalized 21st century echo chambers and view things in their historical perspecitve, lol.
I love the staticy scratchy sound on this thank you for posting this sweet sounding treasure got any more real scratchy music like this can you post them if you can super thank you, and please don't clean this up it sounds so good like this please have more like this, and love the shaymin icon avi pic really awesome and staticool
Track 2 [the orchestral waltz] sounds like "Valzer dell'allegria", sung by Claudio Villa...the arranger here took more liberties with the melody lines, but the structure and key points are the same.
Some pieces have identical chord structures anyway, and the minor section is even more different in Valzer dell'allegria, making it difficult to determine what it really is...
59:48 - The Last Time I Saw Paris Note: This also appears on a Christmas record and Basic #7-A from replace no. 4 (10-1-1960) albeit with the intro intact.
"Something" by the Beatles is one of these muzak songs on the SBL. I guess it is true that you know you've arrived as a songwriter when one of your tunes has been re-recorded as muzak.
I was gonna offer you to restore the track and clean it up for you, but reading the comments, I realise it might anger some of your more old school listener lol Anyway, thanks for preserving this and sharing! You should upload it at the Internet Archive too to ensure it get preserved longer!
I have made a cleaned up version of the audio, if you skip the first two tracks, it almost cleaned up to perfection. Totally would upload if I had the blessing of the user that upload this.
@@EverythingRetro1 my brother and I agree with this 100%. We have been buying up what albums we can and consider this era of bgm and Muzak to be lost genre.
Yeah this record was the very first Seeburg record I ever got. I bought it off of 8 Track Shack. com for $15 in 2015. From there on the collection grew and channel Fardemark was created.
here are some more seeburg videos I uploaded on my other channel czcams.com/video/RjSAiqOhOuQ/video.html czcams.com/video/AC-i2aYRnLU/video.html czcams.com/video/SqIOy0PwIpY/video.html
I used to work at a golf course and I can still remember a few tunes. I am pretty good at remembering older music, but these songs I think were from movies that I didn't see. So I can't find them. It's kind of bugging me. I want to find them for some reason.
@ Peter Landry WOW I'M GOING TO CLEAN THIS 1 UP, ALSO, and don't worry I keep the original as is then save a digital copy so I have BOTH Before & After Versions. I KNOW MOST OF THESE SONGS HAVE TO CHECK MY ARCHIVE. I have a MUZAK collection of 152 albums restored digitally. now i'm getting as many of the Seeburg's I can to restore them. it is time consuming, as a music historian i'm working on the biggest collection of music. have 29,000 mp3's from late 1800's, 1900's, 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, & 80's. have 5,000 full playlist albums. it's so big now they take up two 1 TB Drives. might have a 3rd shortly. also music from around the world. the collection is just massive.
Lovely just the way it sounds...wonderful with all the scrich,scrich...crak...please don't take them off...leave the "wrinkles " on the "face " of this "old but still gorgeous lady "named Music...
I might be totally mistaken here (mea culpa in advance if I am) but after listening for a while it seems that these scratches and pops were added to make these songs sound like over-used vintage vinyl. It's too rhythmic, too repetitive. At least to me. Sounds like one five-second effect on a loop with a small gap between each time, at least on the first tune. But I do like the music here; very nostalgic vibe.
I really enjoyed listening to this. I tried to make a track list here but there are many songs I don't recognize. A few sound familiar. Ballad of Easy Rider I only know of the Percy Faith instrumental version and this isn't that one, so this version is new to me. For This Girl is a Woman Now I only knew of two instrumental versions - one is by the Living Strings and the other is a custom version by Pat Valentino for Bonneville Broadcasting System. This one is neither of those, so I'd sure like to know who the artist is. Maybe Seeburg did their own custom instrumentals like Muzak and Bonneville did?1.

When I Looked Into Eyes - Cell:Adore Moche en Maiorca - 101 Strings Orchestra & Trumpet 69 Olé - (Unknown) That's 3 of the other tracks on the record according to the CZcams playlist, but I have no idea which track is which.
I would like to try at cleaning this up. I can also recommend the tool Audacity for cleaning the audio. Audacity is a volunteer project and is a free download.
I've processed the audio file with the Goldwave software's de-click function and re-encoded it at a more appropriate sampling frequency and bit rate. It sounds a lot better. You can download it as a 22MB mp3 file from tinyurl.com/declicked if you're interested.
Something is wrong with the content ID tagging by CZcams. That "music in this video" is totally wrong, at least the first item in there. It's not even from the same era (sounds like those sampled jazzy hiphop pieces popular right now) Sad to think that Cell:Adore is getting royalties for something they had nothing to do with.

Was a little kid in those years. Absolutely every office, store, medical waiting room, played this. A friend even lived in an apartment building that piped muzak in every apartment.
they probably realized there was a lower instance of disease for those living with music like this... so they had to remove it.
Thanks for the pops and cracks, adds to the autenthicity! A recording like this without these is not very authentic...
I love the pops and skips! Don’t apologize please.
Brings back a flood of Memories from my youth in the early 70;s , Love it , Thank You :) QC
Interesting how a few minutes in, I don't even notice the pops and crackles anymore. It's kind of endearing.
Don't worry about the skips and pops, it adds to the vintage nature.
i like it just the way it is. it has a lot of character
at 5:30 its the instrumental version of The Ballad of Easy Rider by The Byrds
Sounds like dusty record, and ruins the quality of this beautiful music.
@@Heidishereandthere Understandable but in hip-hop this is classic. I do see your point of view also.
"Miss Turner, take a letter...

Amazing! There is a sound of 60 Hz electricity hum in the background.

The pops and skips actually made me enjoy it a lot more tbh! It was like asmr hahaha
That's alright, it adds more to the nostalgia. Thanx 😊

19:15 , the song after the song ends, I swear I've heard it before
19:39 , it sounds like some kind of muzak or sounds for the supermarket thing
Probably at a Lowery Organ store in your local mall. ;-)
