Actually, there is two. Chillaxin' is the other one.
That's more of a chill/ambient song to me rather than jazz.
I agree. Sounds more like R&B/Funk in a way. Wish they would play some new jazz song in the primetime slot besides Boney James or reuses from the past.

Yeah, Chillaxin' is more of an R&B-sounding chill song. TWC is completely allergic to playing smooth jazz in the primetime.  :angry: Touch is a smooth jazz classic by John Klemmer. Boney James did not do it much justice IMO.  :no: It does not have the soul, the emotion, and sensuality of the orginal. TWC should play the original Touch in primetime or overnight.

Hakeem: What's up, Jetsons!
Frank Mitchell: Jetsons?
Hakeem: Yeah, you and George got the same haircut.

That is because primetime is devoted to rock. I can't see them continuing with the reuses for each primetime and morning slot in the playlist. Every playlist since the January one has had 3 or more repeats in the primetime list, and quite frankly going back to all jazz can help justify this.

I'm getting a little tired of Boney James' music...
His music not bad, but some songs like Touch sounds a lot like Euge Groove and Richard Elliot (I confuse it the first time I heard it) due to the same saxophone he used.

Is it just me or does Early Evening by CC Gilmore sound similar to Joe Sample's Born to Be Bad (from Feb 2000 playlist)? They are two great songs, BTW.

It does sound like a cover version of Joe Sample's "Born To Be Bad".

There's a song that sounds a lot like Trance Fury, which happens to be playing at 5:38 AM EDT... that sounds a lot like Trance Fury. Can't pin the name on it though.

That's what I thought as well...

Don't think it was me. I wish. I've always made suggestions and if they get a chance to put it on the list then I am appreciative!

Those looking for this song, it's "Enchanted Island" by Soul Cafe from On The Move. It's on iTunes.

I just so happened to hear "Touch" by Boney James tonight. That song was originally done by John Klemmer back in 1975 (on the album of the same name) and was used on the local forecast back in 1988 and 1989.
