Those are the "indie" tracks they recently added. Not too many but it still looks pretty good for a station like KSWD.

They all got 1 spin on a speciality show. Not necessarily an "add"

Thanks Radio Researcher, I rest my case....

Note to Radiojomo:  Instead of starting up a CHR Internet station, WHY NOT do a AAA???  Doncha think there's a hole in SoCal radio big enough to drive a Mack Truck and a Hummer through??   

[radiojomo]

HAHA! I don't know about that one. AAA doesn't seem very popular online. That and it's to advertise the company I work for. I really want to launch an alternative station online, but I don't have the money and it doesn't seem many online Alternative stations survive online. Two of my favorite alternative online stations have left in the past year so I'll just start something on Goom Radio when they let people start building their own stations.

[SuperRadioFan]

Not popular??  Have you never heard of Radio Paradise, online for almost  decade now .... With a devoted and loyal following, just check their forum.  Legato Cafe could be around a while as well.    How do you measure popularity anyway?  Alternative- WOXY.com still around too!

Exactly. Using Radiojomo's logic, I understand that the Sound has added "Pico and Sepulveda" and "Fish Heads" within the last month as well.

Speaking of specialty shows on the Sound, I really enjoy "Peace, Love and Sunday Mornings" with Mimi Chen.  The mood is very mellow with lots of "Oh Wow" cuts.

+1 ... Meems always 'rock' my Sundays    BTW - To add what others have commented, I only listen to KSWD on Sundays (eTown, Mimi) and 10 @ 10 - The rest of the time I listen to RP (It's from Paradise, CA Ya know)     Joe G
