I also recall during this time frame the "J" flavor music would become static at times with the TCF frame switchover

I didnt want to post a whole topic for this, but It has been exactly ten years since I stumbled accidentally onto TWC Classics, when it was called "Matt's Guide To The Weather Channel" on 3/10/2003 at night

America has been Fundamentally Bankrupt since 1933 and is only Sovereign und er whats called Emergency War Powers. Obamacare will bring the US to its knees, and EWP wont save the U.S. this time. We will be a possession of China by 2016, guaranteed.

Some of the songs (Good King Joy and Joy to the World by Mark K) don't sound appropriate on the overnight either.

ehh stop complaining... this is the best playlist TWC has had all year. Ill take it consider all the vocal junk that has aired this year

Covers of the song have also been used in the past. One by Free Flight was used in the late 80s and one by Acoustic Alchemy (my favorite version featured on TWC) was used in 1990. My favorite cover is Grover Washington, Jr.

I have the Acoustic Alc. and Free Flight CD's with those covers. I need to get "Time Out" which has the original version which is 5:26 or so (used March 2001 on TWC)

Any song from the april 1993 playlist, especially Ancient Dream from Patrick O Hearn

Local Forecast / Re: Christmas playlists and Regular playlists

« on: December 04, 2012, 06:23:58 PM »

I remember in 1991 TWC play regular and holiday music and then switched to all Christmas within a few days of the 25th. In 1992 and forward it was all Christmas from December 10-11 all the way till Christmas Day (except for the occasional regular song airing on a BTF)
