Muzak is an American brand of background music played in retail stores and other public establishments. The name has been in use since 1934, and has been owned by a division or subsidiary of another company ever since. In 1981, Westinghouse bought the company and ran it until selling it to the Fields Company of Chicago, publishers of the Chicago Sun-Times, on September 8, 1986. Formerly owned by Muzak Holdings, the brand was purchased in 2011 by Mood Media in a deal worth US$345 million. Muzak was based in various Seattle, Washington locations from 1986 to 1999, after which it moved its headquarters to South Carolina in 2000.
The word Muzak has been a registered trademark since December 21, 1954, of Muzak LLC, although it dominated the market for so many years that the term is often used (especially when used with lowercase spelling) as a generic term for all background music. The term Muzak is – at least in the United States – often used for most forms of background music, regardless of its source. It may also be referred to as "elevator music" or "lift music". Though Muzak Holdings was for many years the best-known supplier of background music, and is commonly associated with elevator music, the company itself did not supply music to elevators. Since 1997, Muzak has used original artists for its music, except on its Environmental channel.

I grew up in the 60s and 70s, funny how we took it for granted back then and now look back on how special those times really were, and long to go back to those times and experience the wonderfulness of it all.
-
The sad thing is so many jokes were made regarding this type of music, but compared to the garbage that's shoved in our ears in retail stores now, makes me long for yesteryear.

I miss being a young kid from the 70's and a teen in the 80's...
-
I'm currently in my kitchen washing the dishes while listening to this with the windows open on this breezy early June day. I'm just loving life right now.
-
Nothing like the 70s…for kids and adults alike. My dad used to work to this music and now I do too. It’s like I’m living a piece of that peaceful decade!
-
Love the old 'Special' CBS intro.... Man, that brings back memories....
-
I miss these times! I was a grade schooler in the 70s. Life was easy and good. At least my upbringing was. I miss that. I weep for my grandkids growing up today. This world sux.
-
Things back then might not have been easier, but they were damn sure simpler..
-
I love the music and ambience
-
Give me anything old school. An ex of mine , nicknamed me Old School and I didn’t mind one bit. Appreciate this.

Saturday afternoon, laid on the couch to take a nap while listening to this with the windows open. Once the video was over, I woke up, and while I was not thrilled to head back into the real world, I was happy I took time out to visit my childhood. The nice thing about videos such as yours', it allows me to revisit the better parts of childhood, and not visit some of the unpleasant parts. Thank you.

The sound of the Moog (at about 13:30) fits perfectly in my ear.
-
❤ Duke Ellington once said " There are only two kinds of music; good and bad." This is most certainly the very good kind!
-
This sound could be described as beautiful music
-
54:07 Wow!!! That's my wheelhouse _ Love the brass over the 88s and the strings such a sweet innocence that gets you swooning, then grabs you and sits you down to reminisce with all the feels
-
People could have fun without smartphones in those days.Just belonging together.
-
53:53 The Olde Fashioned Ye Olde Pizza Hut ! There was something so cheesy BUT comforting about that place back then. Those red tumblers . LOL . I wish there would be a RETRO theme park with old restaurants like this .

Love This, I Put It On And It Keeps Me Company While I "Pudder About " The House.
