Song Identification needed

[Localonthe8s]

For those of you who follow classic TWC music (This is not a TWC video btw but this is the best place IMO to post this), there's an accuweather station in my area that plays a lot of TWC music, many of them from the 90s. In fact most of the music Accuweather plays is the classic stuff TWC has played before like Pee Wee, Homeward Bound, Shadowfax, etc.

Can someone please ID these songs, if possible in this video. These songs may be familiar to anyone into 90s jazz/TWC music.

WFMZ Smooth Jazz Combo 6/25 & 7/1 (Includes one TWC song)

Thanks.

I don't know the identities of any of the unknown songs in that video, but I do know that none are from TWC. They may be songs from TWC artists, but if they are they weren't used.

"Norwegian Mood" by Oystein Sevag is listed on the July 1991 playlist from TWC. I haven't been able to confirm that it was actually used, though.

I'm pretty sure that 3:10- 4:01 Unknown is "Distant Thoughts" by Dan Siegel, which was used in the late 80s.

Not sure about the last unknown.

Good selections!

Thanks Gary and Matt! I will post another clip when I have the time to. Yeah, that Oystein song is listed in the playlist as I thought it sounded familiar. I will also post that Siegel song in the description since I can trust you Matt. Thanks for the IDs!

Here's another:

Jamaican Nights by Russ Freeman was used before, right? it sounds so familiar.

According to Matt's site, that song was on the December 1986 playlist.  However, I didn't hear that song in the video you posted here.

That is what Soundhound on a friend's ipod touch says...I sampled it on Amazon and it sounds the same although I haven't heard the full song.

Listening to the middle of that song, it does sound like it. The other two I recognized were "The Joy Of Life" and "Midnight Motion" by Kenny G.

[Localonthe8s]

Were those two Kenny G songs used earlier on TWC?

Yes. "Joy of Life" was used in '93 and "Midnight Motion" was used in '88.

The second tune is "Café Carnival" by Craig Chaquico, used in 2000. Another midway through the clip is "Sooner or Later" by The Roberts Bros., but it wasn't used on TWC.

And, by the way, this six minute clip of weather and music is far more entertaining and useful than anything on TWC these days.

Thank you, Layne I concur, as I've stopped watching TWC and instead turned onto Channel 69 to hear these classics instead. I will post more as time allows.

I recorded that AccuWeather channel from 4:30-6 this morning. I'll try to get clips of later. I wish I got the actual channel, but I can only see it during overnights when WFMZ simulcasts it.

WTH, why were they playing Christmas music this morning?

6? I thought they play it from 1:30 to 5am and yes I can only see it on overnights too.
