Sirius Radio - Besides Stern

Nah, fuck me. What it boils down to is the great part in the middle of that last line...around the part where the background singers break into the "till the sun comes through" part...

Basically, that entire chorus is some great mu-chord orgy, I'm thinking, anyhow...

I haven't turned on my Sirius receiver in a while, but that show Rude Jude did on Shade 45 was fuckin great.

o man I want donald fagen's playlist. Do they put them on a site?

I don't know where to put this so I'm putting it here:

how is sirius xm these days

i like it a lot! its def for boomers. theres "extra" channels now for deeper cuts. the prince channel is cool. but when you listen to the same stations you do start to hear the same shit after a while. dr laura is good for road trips.

Free through June 5! I love 50s music, but their 50s channel is remarkably lacking in rock, rockabilly, jump blues, doo wop etc., and heavy on Perry Como, Patti Page, Mitch Miller, and novelty hits like “The Chipmunk Song” and “Purple People Eater.” And songs I heard this morning were repeated this evening.

As Kurt says above, the deep cuts channels (mostly streaming-only off of the app) are pretty good, Indie 1.0 ('80s-'90s 'college radio' rock) and First Wave Deep Cuts especially. Still surprised after all these years they've never tried a dedicated prog channel, even on the app.

re: my comments above from '06: most car manufacturers aren't even bothering to put SXM transponders in these days as everyone just runs through their phone. SXM will definitely play ball with you on any renewal agreement, so by all means don't pay list price; call 'em up and see what deal du jour (or probably deal du individual sales rep) they're offering.
