Standards Channel Proposes to Save Broadcast Radio

Postby Bud on 28 Feb 2008, 04:57

A New Radio Network designed to capture a lifestyle of 40+ listeners, long ignored by today's radio. A format that's base is a blend of classic and contemporary artists performing The Great American Songbook. From Sinatra, Ella and Dino to Michael Buble, Diana Krall, Harry Connick, Jr. and Steve Tyrell.

Of course, Diana was included in this “Contemporary Cool artists" list. She's great! But, I was wonder why Norah Jones is not there.

Off the top of my head, other than "The Nearness of You," I can't think of anything else Norah's covered from the Great American Songbook. Feel free to correct me if I missed something!

You're right Carl, currently it's not working. Yesterday I could read it. :roll:

Edit: Right now, is working again.

Actually Norah covered from the American Songbook: "Nearness of You" (as you've said) and "Summertime". I think she and others singers like Jamie Cullum (he covered "Fascinating Rhythm", "One for My Baby" and "I Get a Kick Out of You") shoud be included to the Radio list.
