My thanks, too, for all the fine work you've done on the new site. Having the player on each page is a big plus. And, 8:54 pm Jake Shimabukuro, Let's Dance 8:51 pm Ledward Kaapana, Radio Hula made me think of something Cuzzin Al often does in the middle of his Bluegrass show.
Loved it.

Bill, the PSD button is brilliant...There is never a need to mute or go elsewhere. Great idea. Now we don't ever have to read posts complaining about the music again....

I think FG is one of those songs that's so old, with so many versions, there's no way to determine it's 'original' provenance. A quick search revealed a number of versions, all variations of a similar theme, sort of an Irish Valhalla. The Hip's version pays fine tribute to the genre.

There's a new community radio station here in Pete - just a few months old. I've listened to some of the music programs and they're mighty interesting but also jarring and random. Not to mention the frequent 10-20 seconds of dead air time, of the interview that spans the hour but fails to mention the guest's name or the station letters after the ads. I'd love to put a 2-hour program together but I keep thinking - WWBGD? I don't have his talent, that's for sure. Thanks, Bill.

It's programmed by a pair of radio veterans who know how to tell stories through the juxtapositions of their songs. They create threads of music that hurdle genres to not only expose you to new music but to prepare you for new types of music by setting you up with songs you like. Radio Paradise offers a human touch by people who understand the art of programming. I don't like every song they present, but I like most of them because they have remarkable taste in a variety of music from alt rock to ancient blues. With Radio Paradise, I'm never bored and I'm often exhilarated. No computer program and few humans can make me feel that way. I can't even do that when I'm selecting music from my own beloved library. Wow, that's a great plug! Last line there is something I've said many times...
