Less jazz on our airwaves
You probably heard by now that Clear Channel swapped the soft jazz on 106.5 FM to yet another country station…
I got a note from a jazz fan expressing remorse that seemed worth sharing…
Mr. Rollins,
In case you weren’t aware, Clear Channel has switched the Dayton Smooth Jazz station 106.5 to a country music format. This occurred on Friday May 1 and this station is now known as The Bull. I say BS!
My wife and I are extremely disappointed with Clear Channel’s decision, as we thoroughly enjoy smooth jazz music. I’m sure other loyal listeners of WDSJ feel the same way. Besides, don’t we have a sufficient number of country music stations in this market?
Thank you, Larry, Bellbrook
OK, I admit that I only listen to smooth jazz every once in a while, and usually only at night in the car. I’m more a jazz-jazz guy, if you know what I mean, and like what I get on WYSO-FM, though that’s only Tuesdays.
So, it’s worth asking: What do you think of the change? Have you had a chance to listen to the new country station? Will you miss WDSJ?
