You are enjoying a virtual potpourri of your favourite songs: from Buddy Holly, to The Rolling Stones. Patti Page, to Patsy Cline. Big Band, mixed in with the biggest hits from The Beatles, to Chicago, to Bobby Rydell.

And because oldies don’t have to be restricted to Pop or Rock, we spin a classic country track from the yourKawarthaOLDIES.com Country Club, where membership has its privileges and they include classic tunes you don’t hear on commercial country radio today.

Tammy Wynette, George Jones, Hank Snow, Bob Wills, Dolly, Loretta, Conway – the list goes on.

You’ll enjoy classic commercials from yesteryear, and some classic comedy, too.

But the highlight remains the hundreds of broadcast archives from the Kawartha region that our curator has unearthed and archived – from Bob Eakins excitedly calling hockey games, reciting  his daily recipe or gently narrating ‘Sunday Reveries’ on 910 CKLY, to Gary Dalliday’s very first sportscast, and the Peterborough Timbermen winning their fourth Mann Cup in 1954. There’s John Badham and Gord himself stickhandling the Great Flood of 2004, Neil Boughen covering a crisis in Haliburton, Jim Bonner’s ‘Top 8 at 8″ on 980 CHEX and Geoffrey Thomson’s Sunday evening classics on CFMP, the forerunner to the WOLF.

Bobby Orr doing commercials for Ostrander Jewellers, and Joey Edwards manning CKPT on New Years’ Day 1971 from the Empress Hotel while Dave Fisher, long before his days in Montreal, was doing the same on 980 CHEX.

And that just scratches the surface. Our founder and curator, Gordon Gibb maintains it would be a disservice to confine these treasures to a box, gathering dust. Thanks to The Fantastic Kawartha Time Machine, the magic is online and available for anyone to hear, from Coast to Coast to Coast and around the world as part of a living, breathing history exhibit presented in  traditional and familiar radio format. But you won’t find this on traditional radio. The only source, is the site onto which you have just landed. We thank you. And we hope you enjoy everything you hear.
