Classic WC tunes playing April, 2010

[Mike]

Heard two tunes from the WC classic years recently: "The Gift" by 3rd Force and "Rainbow Seeker" by Joe Sample. Both have been recycled into the locals occasionally for years. "The Gift" brings back memories of the 1994 summer season when 3rd Forces' self titled debut CD was played heavily. In fact, every song on it was used. That doesn't happen too often. "Rainbow Seeker" dates back to at least 1988.

"Rainbow Seeker" by Joe Sample isn't on the playlist, but it's on the IntelliSTAR's internal playlist when TWC sends out a weather update for your area.

As for "The Gift", that is on the playlist.

The Intellistar has it's own playlist?

The Intellistar has it's own playlist?

Yes, it has a playlist consisting of six songs used primarily during dual-feed coverage, and sometimes randomly in error.

Rainbow Seeker was actually in a playlist not too long ago in June 2008 when the Smooth Jazz 2 CD was released.

What are the other five songs? One of them I'm guessing might be "When Summer Comes" by George Howard, another classic tune from 1994 I've heard occasionally in the past which seemed to happen in error.

"Road to Venlo" - David Becker Tribune
"South of the Market" - Joyce Cooling
"When Summer Comes" - George Howard
"Rainbow Seeker" - Joe Sample
"Return of the Eagle" - Craig Chaquico

and a Brian Hughes song I can't think of.

Thanks  .  Now that I see the list I remember hearing "Road To Venio" quite a bit and "South Of The Market" I heard just a few weeks ago.

Rainbow Seeker cam out in 1977. I remember it played in June 2008. I haven't heard The Gift, though. Maybe if I search the Internet for it and listen to it (if I can find it), I might recognize it.

Rainbow Seeker was also used in 1988, 1989, and 2000. The Gift was used in 1994, and November 2000.
