Interviews and music on Smooth Jazz USA tonight

Hey smooth people:

The time it is changing. With the U.S. moving back to Standard time
this weekend, most likely the local airing time of our show will be
one hour earlier.

So it's still 0UTC Tuesday, but 6pm central, 7pm eastern, 5pm mountain
and 4pm pacific.

On the show this week, it's kind of a special replay. I received an
e-mail a few weeks ago from a listener that had missed some of the
interviews I have done over the past few months. So I figured, they
were interesting and why not air them again?

So that is what is happening on the show tonight.

We'll have several great interviews I have done along with music by
the artists.

So here's who you will hear on the show tonight:


Joyce Cooling

Author Carmen Ruben who wrote a cool book for kids about jazz.

Jeff Golub

Joe McBride

and Peter White.

I'll also have smooth jazz news and more.


So I hope you will be able to join me tonight for two hours of great
music and information on Smooth Jazz USA.

The show will also be simulcast on Radio For Life at
http://www.radioforlife.net

It's a listening experience!

Stay smooth!

Jazz Notes Radio Signs Off

It was just three months ago I began programming music for Jazz Notes Radio.  I really was enjoying the process and had seriously hoped more people would gravitate over.  After promoting the station on lists, Twitter and Facebook, listeners just were not there.  In fact, I never saw more than single digit listener counts.  Listeners did have the option on the web page to use PayPal and send a contribution, but nothing came in, and that was about what I had expected.  So when my opportunity came along to voice the morning show on Smooth Jazz Now, I felt that more people would benefit from my efforts there than with the little Jazz Notes Radio station.  It really was not that expensive to purchase the server and bandwidth, and the financial part really did not play in my decision.  I just felt I was spreading myself to thin to do everything.  So, if you've not come over to Smooth Jazz Now and checked out my show, I'm on every weekday,
 
6-9 eastern
5-8 central
4-7 mountain
3-6 pacific
 
 
Hope we can hook up there.
 
Steve B.
 
 
P.S. And if yu did listen to and enjoy Jazz Notes Radio, thanks for listening and I'm glad you liked the music mix.

New music, special features and a tribute tonight on Smooth Jazz USA

Hey smooth people:
 
After you survive Monday, how about joining me tonight for Smooth Jazz USA.  On the show tonight:
 
1.     Norah Jones will release a new CD "The Fall" on November 17th.  I've got the first single from this new CD and it's very different.  hear it tonight on the show.
 
2.     Several people have included special songs on their new CDs for the late Wayman Tisdale who passed away this last May.  Most recently, saxophonist tom Braxton.  But there's another artist who has included a very specail song about Wayman on his new CD and you will probably be really surprised when you hear it.  Surprised in more than one way!
 
3.     for a teacher, seeing one of your students succeed is so very rewarding.  At a recent concert, Kenny G took a moment between songs and recognized someone who made a huge difference in his life as a young student.  I've got the entire tribute and it's pretty cool.
 
I'll have smooth jazz news, and would you believe a new number one song and more.
 
I'll have the virtual coffee pot on and some virtual fresh brewed ice tea as well, so please join me this evening for Smooth Jazz USA.
 
7pm Central, 8pm Eastern, 6pm Mountain and 5pm Pacific, that's 0UTC Tuesday.
 
The show can be heard on:
 
The Global Voice
 
Radio For Life
 
Jazz Notes Radio
(Note: Since I have accepted the position of announcer for the morning show on Smooth Jazz Now, this station will be going off the air at the end of the month and this will be the final simulcast of the show on JNR.)

Peter White again this week, a big announcement and more

Hey smooth people:

Last week, Peter White was my special guest. All I can say is this dude is
a super guy. Toward the end of the show, I made a comment that I should
just play all now, 15 of his number one smooth jazz hits. I received
several e-mail messages and people thought that would be cool. So, yes, now
that Peter has snagged the number one spot on the chart again with "Bright,"
from his new CD, "Good Day," I am going to play all 15 of his number one
hits.

Plus, we will check out tracks from two new CDs:

Michael buble is in with "Crazy Love"

and trumpeter Greg Adams is in with "East Bay Soul."

Of course, if you missed the Peter White interview, you can catch it by
clicking on Last Weeks show on the web page plus, the entire interview is
also available under the Extra Show link as well.


Now for the big announcement. Smooth Jazz Now is a new Internet radio
station. Beginning Monday morning (10-19) I will be hosting the early show
from 6-9am eastern. Each weekday morning, I'll help you wake up and get
your day started. The show airs from 6-9am eastern, 5-8am central, 4-7am
mountain and 3-6am pacific. To listen, just go to:

http://www.smoothjazznow.com

I join several other well known announcers including:

John Beaudin 9-Noon eastern
Cameron Smith, Noon-3pm eastern
Ken Navarro, 3-6pm eastern
Nick Colionne, 6-10pm eastern
and Shannon Edwards,10pm-1am eastern.

You will also be able to hear Smooth Jaz USA Weekend, each Saturday and
Sunday at 3pm eastern as well.

So I hope you can join me now each weekday morning on Smooth Jazz Now.


I am still planning to continue to produce and broadcast Smooth Jazz USA
each Monday evening on The Global Voice. This show has been part of my life
for nearly 9 years now and it just must continue.


Watch for an announcement regarding Jazz Notes Radio later this week.

I'll see you on the radio either early tomorrow morning or tomorrow evening.
It's a bit crazy right now, but things should smooth out soon.

Thanks for listening and as usual, your feedback is always welcome.

Stay smooth!

A very special guest tonight on Smooth Jazz USA

Hey smooth people:
 
Well, I'm like a little kid in the candy store or waiting to open presents on Christmas morning.  My special guest tonight is guitarist Peter White.  Yes, it's true.  Peter is the most played smooth jazz artist, not only because of his great albums, but also because he appears on so many other artists albums as well.
 
I'll talk with Peter about growing up in the U.K., living in the U.S., his music career and of course, I want to talk about his new album "Good Day."
 
I'll also do a segment of songs about the telephone. <grin>
 
Add to this smooth jazz news, a birthday or two to celebrate and a new number one song.
 
tha'ts Smooth Jazz USA for tonight.
 
7pm central
8pm eastern
6pm mountain
5pm pacific
0UTC (Tuesday)
 
Listen on our flagship station, The Global Voice
 
The show is also simulcast on:

I hope you can be with us for the show tonight.  It's surely to be one of the best we've done in a long time.
 
Steve "The Jazz Man"
