Jazz FM


This is a whinge.
Jazz FM has become Smooth and Jazzfm.com on DAB in the West.
What has happened to any Jazz music?
It plays Soul,Fusion,Funk,anything but Jazz.I cannot locate' Dinner Jazz' with Helen Mayhew at all,we used to listen most nights.
Ofcom have let them take the output downmarket,I think they cannot really call themselves JazzFM under the Trades Description Act.The Trade Name should be bought sold to a real jazz provider,maybe BBC Radio 3 ,as they seem to play more Jazz than Jazz FM.
I think the Jazzfm.com DAB slot should be filled by any of the excellent American of French Jazz stations.Dont waste valuable bandwidth on this rubbish.
If you tune to ClassicFM you get classical music,not so with Jazz FM.
that's it rant over.
Here is a picture of Oldfield Park rail station,which I use regularly,taken at dawn the other day.
Wessex Trains have failed to provide regular ticket sales here for 6 months,but the station attracts the nicest set of passengers anyway,no bias here!!
