A two-hour trip to a time when music mattered
There is no argument that the music of the late ‘60’s and early 70’s, what is most commonly called Classic Rock, is the most important music ever made to its listeners.


Most of these baby boomers have had a life-long love affair with their music and it does not look like it is going to die down soon.


Back before CD’s and digital music most of those albums were listened to on stereo record players.


All of those great albums contained an average of 10 to 12 songs per album. If you are old enough to remember then you will know that most people did not constantly lift and drop the needle onto their favorite album cuts. Every time you dropped the needle, you ran the risk of damaging the disk. Therefore most people put the needle down on an album side and let it play all the way through, thus becoming familiar with all the songs on the album. Most classic rock stations today will play only one or two songs from those albums leaving the majority of music on them un-played and unheard by the audience.


When you hear these songs again it is like running into a dear old friend you haven’t seen for 20 years. It is a treat. The reaction is almost always the same, a big smile.


The Deep End with Nick Michaels is a program that not only gives voice to these great songs but also give context to them through the use of sound and narration. This program feels like it is taking you back to that time. Audiences respond to it the way you respond to running into that dear old friend. After a few minutes with that friend, it is as if no time has passed between you. The warmth of that feeling is what this show is all about.


Don’t think of it as a album of photographic memories, its not, this show is a time machine that actually takes you back to the feeling of the times. This is done through the use of the future tense for past events. It sounds as if we are back in time about to live it all again!
