I bought a DAB radio back in the days of THE JAZZ. When that station went down the Mississippi River my DABBER was relegated to the loft.
However, JAZZ FM is now available on DAB (and some cable channels).
I must confess that at first I had my reservations as, at times, it is so smooth as to be almost elevator music but, after repeated listenings and the enthusiasm of fellow bandsman Phil, I have come to the conclusion that I was perhaps being a bit harsh and there is a lot of good stuff amidst the blandness. Helen Mayhew's one of the DJs and she certainly knows her stuff.
Just heard Dexter Gordon and Bobby Hutcherson on one of the old Blue Note albums.
Check Jazz FM out.

I've had it on for most of the day Lance, as you say some bits are good, but this afternoon it was fusion so not my thing. Anyway I will persevere as I do so miss "The Jazz"
