This is one of the most repeated playlists.     BTW, who does that steel drum song in the morning?

That's "Sunshine (Instrumental)" by Timbuk 3. It was aired previously on Wake Up With Al on September 1st. Nice song

Overall its a solid playlist.

Overall its a solid playlist.

Really? One of the most boring, terrible playlists ever imo.

I think it's clear TWC needs to switch back to all smooth jazz. It's clear there aren't enough instrumental rock songs for TWC to play. And please enough Chris Geith and Ryan Farish!

I love Ryan's work... but I can't understand how this became a promotion for his new albums. I would kill to hear some of his more classic songs, such as "Beautiful", "Fall Rain", or most of all, "Full Sail".

Or better yet, some more of his older Selected Works and In The Day songs.

I agree. They're running out of non-jazz songs to use, so they're forced to reuse other nonjazz songs from previous lists instead.

Well personally Ive heard worst. I guess solid is a bit strong but I dont feel its the worst. I agree. TWC seriously needs to relook at its choice of music selection. Its attempt to reach a broad audience is a poor one at best

Yes, I wish they'd drop this instrumental rock and pop and soundtrack stuff.  They need to stick to jazz completely. Or at least 90% of the songs should be jazz. I also wish they'd extend the daytime playlist to 7 or 8pm, since that is when the best (meaning smooth jazz) songs are on. It is hard to hear the complete list in the daytime, because with all that Tornado! and Storm Stories programming, on afternoons after 2pm, all you'd hear is 1 min LOT8s or sometimes none.

This would be a great time to bring back Steve Hurst, who programmed the music from 2000-2007. He played plenty of jazz, but threw in a small variety of rock instrumentals in too without playing the same stuff all the time.

To be honest, I would agree with you Aaron. I wish to hear some of his classic songs (Full Sail is one of my favorite classics). But I'm also very happy that three of his Bloom songs are on this month's playlists. Nothing to be too mad about.
