Very well said... I personally enjoy this music quite a bit and I'm thankful to have a station that plays such a large assortment of music. Thanks RP!

this is the sort of thing which made the once great Mr Armstrong a joke, a buffoon, and an object of derision.

That depends on what you think rocks.

this song turned towards humorous as soon as Louis started singing...

but I love it!

Therefore, YOU can 1) reduce/eliminate the sound while items YOU can do without are playing; or 2) listen to a station that plays only what YOU like; or 3) listen to YOUR cd's, tapes, whatever, that bring YOU joy.

Those of us who like Mr. Armstrong will then be able to listen to him on this radio station, comforted that we are not annoying YOU.

While it doesn't have to always be rock....there of......we can do without the satchmo stuff! We're not in the islands here....well maybe some listeners are-but this doesn't jive with me...sorry

Do'in the mambo. :D/

First Satchmo song I can tolerate listening to.

for the 100 millionth time I think to myself, man what a great, electic mix of music on this station. Have to get that satellite connection for the computer on the home front out in the boonies. Thanks RP! I hear such great favorites, such new songs to me, such variety, I can hardly stand it! ahhhhhhh

Spring is here!

most of what gets played here isn't rock. i don't think that the music played has to match what the little station ID in our media players says. what i've always wondered is why a genre is even nailed down in 'eclectic intelligent rock'. instead of harping on the fact that not all the music played here is rock, why not talk about why it looks labeled when it isn't? this is eclectic intelligent MUSIC. who gives a damn what label it is?

it's the same thing with the whole 'intelligent' thing. not all of the music here is deep as hell, either. some of it is pretty superficial, and there's nothing wrong with that. part of being intelligent is letting go and relaxing for a while, right?

let's all do that, shall we? ^_^

They timed it just right here in NYC!

Such a great song. Used by Richard Linklater with great success in the end of his movie Slacker.

The only bad thing I have to say about this is that RP timed it wrong...this should be the last song of my workday as I'm shutting down all the computers and getting ready to go home....

Wow this is awesome

try Mingus' "Better Get it in Your Soul" for your reception!

Play the Brave Combo version of this some time!

Sorry Louis...this was irritating

Awesome - this is on my personal playlist, but I never thought I'd hear it here!

My fiance and I are thinking of having the horn intro as our intro music to
our reception!! (it's so long)

This one is good about once or twice a year - its in the playlist waaaaaaay too often, especially for a non-rock song.

I needed to hear something like this today! Thanks Bill :D

Geez! I need a pina colata with a toothpick umbrella, sitting under a cabana in the tropics. Warm sun, refreshing breeze, the sound of waves...ahhhh... 8)

This song is on David Byrne's "True Stories" soundtrack.

There is your connection to the last song.

This song is playing over the credits of "Impostors," a fabulous movie with Oliver Platt and Stanley Tucci. The cast dances along...I can't help but just smile!

Loving it!

Rockin' in my cubicle. God, I need a life!
