They also used two of his songs in the mid 80s, as well as several songs by the Crusaders (which he was a member of).

Everything Else TWC / Re: Production Music Identification Thread
« on: September 27, 2015, 10:53:14 PM »Ok I see the attachment or link is not there. So I will post link to twcclassics page
http://www.twcclassics.com/watch.php?file=st%20lf912

And the opening intro here I would love to find
http://www.twcclassics.com/watch.php?file=930702%20Day%20In%20The%20Park
The first two tracks were made especially for TWC. A friend of mine found the original artist, but unfortunately the tracks are long gone.
The third song is called "A Day In The Park" by Network Music (it's also in the page title).

Programming and Graphics / Re: Sweeping Changes Coming: Champion Cancelled, Less Reality Shows
« on: September 25, 2015, 04:41:47 PM »Dave Clark will be talking about the coming changes with the Weatherbrains podcast tonight at 9:30 eastern, if anyone's interested.
Video keeps stalling so I hope someone else had better luck!
Dave said tonight TWC wants to go back to a 24/7 live Channel! Of course the video stopped right after he said that. When the video came back, He said they would be rolling that out in the next few months. We’ll see if that’s true or it’ll take a year. Flick and a Forecast was one of their biggest mistakes Dave also said. Weather Geeks is staying Dave thinks it shiuld be an hour. Al’s E-mail spat was not the reason WUWA got canceled.
In case anyone doesn't have time to listen to or watch this, I wrote up a summary here:

Local Forecast / Re: Trammell Starks Info
« on: September 13, 2015, 01:46:02 AM »I know it's been like 5 years since the last post here, but does anyone know if there's an active email address at all for him? Or if he still sells the songs on disk at all? His website and MySpace seem to have gone down.
As far as I know, he is still selling the CDs. You can find contact information here:

Everything Else TWC / Re: New 60 Second Local Forecast videos on weather.com
« on: August 19, 2015, 03:17:44 PM »Yeah, I can't seem to find it on the local forecast page anymore. And unfortunately the list they provide of all cities is in no order whatsoever (seriously, they couldn't even do alphabetical order?), so it may take a while to find. Fortunately, Dallas was on the first page.
Where is the list?

I guess they don't make one for Omaha (which seems odd). I can't find it.

Everything Else TWC / Re: Is TWC dying?
« on: July 27, 2015, 10:27:31 AM »The Wall Street Journal reports Comcast made a quarterly regulatory filing Thursday, valuing its stake in the Weather Channel at $86 million–down from $336 million at the end of 2014.
...
Over the last four years, the channel has lost more than 11 percent of its subscriber base, and was dropped in March from Verizon’s FiOS service."
Holy cow! That's quite a drop!

Local Forecast / Re: Gil Shaham
« on: June 23, 2015, 10:25:26 AM »So, all tracks in Winter, spring and summer were used?
No, just one version for each "season." Not sure which tracks.

Local Forecast / Re: Wayback Playback - Long plays
« on: June 23, 2015, 10:22:11 AM »
Two corrections - The song in part 2 from 1:20:09 - 1:22:01 is "On A Chestnut Horse" by Fowler and Branca. Not sure where "Equestrian" came from. And "Lilies of the Nile" is by Wilton Felder. The other guys may play on the album, but Wilton was the leader.
