Hi Donna,
I agree with you re: the smooth stations.
It just seems that, for the most part, they play the same "predictable" music.
Some of the stations play me, but I need to bring a new CD to the party, which will
be sooner than later.
I'll only be doing 3 or 4 at Berks, as it isn't my show.
I'm just hangin with some friends.
Be safe and well,
Kenny

artists lists and not the same songs from the same artists played all of the time. Smooth
jazz stations, although enjoyable, can tend to be a bit predictable.

political. Is playtime based on commercial success of recordings? Please enlighten me.
