Hollywood Candlelight and Wine - Hollywood, CA

This station does exactly what it says on the tin, so the review below from 2016 is way out of date! Nice, lush "straight" arrangements of "the Great American Songbook," i.e. from the shows and the movies.

I'm bitterly disappointed that this once wonderful music station has, without any warning or notice, seen fit to change its format to utter rubbish, quite apparently to appease those generations (including the tasteless "baby boomers")who don't appreciate good music, and are in a race to the bottom, musically and good-taste wise. Hollywood Candlelight and Wine was my only refuge from that trash. Such people have literally many hundreds of stations to choose from, each one playing trash, so why not leave the one good station alone? The change occurred here in Australia, on 23rd June 2016, which will now be, as far as I'm concerned, the day the music died. Lovely, smooth, easy listening music, no more.

Finally a station that plays those great sounds of the Movie Themes. They are playing real classics like James Bond and Bullitt movie themes. Also like the Jazz orchestral gems. Haven't been able to find anyone playing that sound from the 50's and 60's.
