Great news providing the music is not diluted as my friend Dave Lee discovered shortly after he lauunched Jazz FM.

Take a look at the Jazz page on my website: www.lyricsforclassics.com

Don Read. one time manager John Dankworth’s band and later half a dozen assorted trad bands.

Keep me advised when station is up and running also will any dab radio receive

Have been listening to the test trasmissions. Brilliant reception in Staffordshire.
Great variety of jazz. Very impressed so far, good luck with the new venture long may it survive!!!!!

PS> Hope i can receive this in North Yorkshire!!!!

I understand ‘Scarborough’ is not covered very well for digital!!!!!

Love the new Jazz station - keep it up!

Can pick it up on Sky satellite but not DAB N of Scotland.

Great music - I’ve been listening over the Christmas holiday - keep it up; please don’t go the same way as Jazz FM did and resort to playing insipid so-called ‘smooth jazz’. My only criticism is the lack of information on the record played - I appreciate that you don’t want to interupt the flow of music but a short announcement after each track (or after 2 tracks) would be very useful! It’s frustrating to hear a piece I like and would like to buy a CD but not knowing what it was!

When do transmissions start?
If it has started what is the wavelength please (I have a digital radio, but can’t seem to lock on to it)

Great new prog can get it on TV sat but what is the wave band for radio

thanks for new jazz programme.we are in space age.stereo transmission where possible is a must.

Just found your station,great reception here in East Lancashire.

Found this great station on my DAB radio purely by chance,if it were advertised more I am sure that you would go from strength to strength. There are very many jazz lovers in this area who have not heard about it or are not computer owners and I guess they would give much support to your endeavour. Do you have any literature to hand out?

I have just purchased a Cambridge Audio 640T DAB Tuner, mainly in order to play THE JAZZ programme. I seem only to get it in mono. Is it transmitted in sterio?

Regards,

Tony Perry

Please could you tell me more about “the jazz” and its schedule listing?

I have just been informed of the existence of “the jazz” on DAB and I am very excited about it: it’s what I have been waiting for for a long long time. I don’t seem to be able to find it on my DAB radio. Can you help me with more information? Also is there a specific website dedicated to “the jazz”?
Thanks

HI
LOve the jazz

Close your eyes
What was it please it was great
thanks Chyis in Cornwall

Hi, Can you give me the wavelength please?

Good to have a jazz program, but I have heard little trad or dixiland or good old fashioned blues. digby fairweather wrote a piece for you, but do you ever play him? There is a large trad audience still out there - they might be getting older - but they have purchasing power. make your advertisers happy and play more trad and less be bop and mainstream, and then make me happy!!!

For a while now I have enjoyed THE JAZZ, unadulterated well selected jazz. But now we have to listen for 5 minutes while 3 people discuss the 5 minute track that has just been broadcast. Worse than pundits at half time on the football game.

You have lost me. I had expected a few quick intelligent commercials to finance the program, but studio wall to studio wall chattering between the music is my total put off.

Good by thejazz, once you were excellent, now it is all chatter, punctuated by some music.

Why the hell do you f**k up the best radio program?

ex listener derek

My wife heard a piece this morning around midday called ‘Loves last kiss’ by Tony we think V….. We would be very abliged for the correct name and any details of how to buy it. Thank you. Chris D.

Hello Fly,
Like most of the messages, can you let me have the wavelength.
Thanks.

Hi Dave - as it is digital, it doesn’t really have a wavelength to point to but if you have a DAB radio, just twiddle the dial until the name comes up. If not, try the website at http://www.thejazz.com/ to listen online.

Great station. Been listening since I discovered it on satelite TV and since have bought a digital radio so I can listen whenever and wherever. I especially like how on digital radio it displays title and artist. Excellent listening - keep it up & keep it going.

I was listening to The Jazz this morning (18 June@11.37) and heard a great piece.Is there a playlist or can someone ID the piece
Ps It would be a great service if the “DJs” would tell us the info after playing the track
regards

Your great new jazz station is the best thing thing thats happened to radio in “donkeys” years. You have my full attention whilst you play high caliber classical jazz music. Keep going. Lovely stuff.

I’ve been listening to the Jazz since May. I think the choice of music is great, and the presenters are understated and appropriate. I particularly like Anthony Davies and Helen Mayhew.

I have yet to hear this station, but please God there is some classic jazz and swing on it, unlike jazz fm which, everytime I tried it, seemed to be playing middle of the road latin-american dance music!!

Hi there,
I have been around for a while now playing and composing and collection my recorded works that I have written in many jazz styles over the years with talented but unknown musicians who I have met along the way.I have compiled an album titled “Contemporary Jazz” which I am over the moon with and has been sign up by DigiMix Records. It is now down loadable on 7Digital where who can hear snippets and iTunes.I of course would like to have my music heard and I would love for jazz D J’s on the radio to preview the tracks and perhaps air some of my music,I list the tracks below from the album,and also I taste of my bio.It was hard enough to get recognition as a writer and artist by a record company and now I need help to get the listen jazz public hear it.Can you assist or have any suggestions that may help please.Thanking you in anticipation.
Dave Jones
