and this is @jerome...idk why but i tried to respond to you early but it didnt post haha...but as far as my listeners, well theyre arent many because its just a college station. but when i do get call in requests its usually from folks that grew up in the 70's asking for Zeppelin or Boston type music.
You can absolutely listen online at:
WIUP FM
its great that people on this site are into different types of music because the station is very eclectic. I run a classic rock show on Thursdays from 12pm-2pm but there are other shows there the showcase other genres of music. Theres also "Mix" shows where the DJ can play whatever they want

It's a musical pleasure, John ! I have a lot more if you wish ?....Deep Purple's HUSH is another one !...lol..on and on !
jroknbok Wrote:Good call on The Who, one of my favorite bands. Just put that on the playlist!! Rock n Roll Hoochie Koo is amazing as well. Already got Zeppelin on the playlist but those are two fantastic songs. I've never heard of Focus or Thunderclap Newman so I'll check them out And the rest are songs I love and I definitely don't hear enough
Thanks for the help!!

No sweat about the prog /ambient music - each to their own. But I do have a large collection of rock music as well. I listen to a variety of stuff but would probably not have as broad a pallette as some of the other regulars here. I don't know how they get through all the stuff they listen to! Some more suggestions
Bad Company - Bad Company
Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers
Rainbow - Since You've Been Gone
Asia - Sole Survivor
Strawbs - Lay Down
Dire Straits - Once Upon a Time in the West
GTR - When the Heart Rules the Mind
and on and on we go......I am sure you will be getting plenty more from other members.

Jerome: I hear ya man. I want to broaden my musical knowledge but I can barely keep up with the genres I'm already into. THERE'S JUST TOO MUCH!!! haha
And those are all great suggestions. I always forget to play Bad Company even though I love them. Can never go wrong with Deep Purple. I never really became a Rainbow or Asia fan but that might just be because I don't know enough about them. Never heard of Strawbs or GTR so thank you for helping me find new things. And the Dire straights are always great!!
Thanks Again EVerybody!!! I'll keep these suggestions for next week!
