Nostalgie New York brings France's nostalgia machine to an American stream. Nostalgie began in Lyon on September 16, 1983, created by Pierre Alberti, and grew into the NRJ Group's classic-hits network, built overwhelmingly on pre-2000 songs — above all the 1980s — mixing French chanson with international oldies under the slogan 'Les plus grandes chansons.' This New York listing carries that same retro recipe for listeners far from a French FM dial.
