Title: Ok really new song during local on the 8s !
Post by: SO7430 on March 11, 2016, 07:45:07 AM

This is by far different from the current mix of song plus I got video proof this time! Myrtle Beach IS2XD 7:29 a.m.   My prehistoric phone took 30 years to load so I just caught then of it.  I like the sound of it, it sounds like one of their old tracks. ve recorded two songs so far.

From what I've head on various videos that were posted so far, all the songs were from TWC's Smooth Jazz CDs they released back in the late 2000's

Ok thanks, I appreciate that. I wind why they all of a sudden switched back to their regular songs?

No way! It sounds like jazz! That would be a step back in the right direction

Exactly, this bumped up my minimal satisfaction of the local on the 8s to mostly satisfied.  :lol: They've also got a remade jingle when it plays the joke, it's like on a xylephone but that's the only remake one I've heard so far.

The first song is "Simple Pleasure" by Jeanne Ricks. Not sure of the second one.

I commented on them reminding you (SO7430) that they're not new.

The first one is the newer version of Simple Pleasures played from 2007 and 2008, but maybe you're not familiar with that one.

The second one played a lot between February 2008 to March 2009.
