You are tuned into a radio station and think is this Melody or Heart 106.2? Surprise, surprise it's Jazz FM on 102.2 ! Old soul, mainly done to death 1970's tunes. Sinatra, Average White Band! Maybe this is the 'Average White Music Station'? Whatever happened to any form of eclectic Jazz mix of sounds. This station sounds about as 'Funky' as the music in your local supermarket ! Have they sold off all their records to pay for the operating deficit ? Or is the Chief accountant or the CEO writing the play list? Perhaps they have to as they sold of the records ! If one listens to the CD's produced by Jazz FM and listen to the station is easy to think that they have gone off the air and have been replaced by Melody FM ! There goes Craig David and Sting. Perhaps I have tuned into Virgin Atlantic Radio in error ??? A while back Jazz FM went through a smooth jazz stage and could be called Sax FM but that was surely better than the sounds of the supermarket that are coming out of the radio now. If you agree with this point of view you may register your protest at www.jazzfm.com Is sounding like any other radio station such a good idea ??
