Oh my. I am privileged to be within radio range of radio free santa
fe, a really eclectic mix of some damn good stuff, mostly alternative,
but they aren't too proud to play Santana, Melissa Etheridge or
Springsteen. Also they have a blues show, a jazz show, a funk show,
and a live jam show that is to die for. Some interesting stuff I have
discovered there and mostly never heard anywhere else --

Ozomatli - arabic/hispanic hip-hop, very good
Keb Mo - straight bues and gospel Texas style
Steve Earle - check out Trancendental Blues - I guess it's postmodern blues/rock

Lucinda Williams - I dunno what to call it but it's damn good - Car
Wheels ona Gravel Road won a Grammy...
Pete Yorn  - kinda like North Dakota Beck
Robert Mirabal - this is on my amazon wishlist

My Morning Jacket - alt of the dreamy rock variety
The Thrills - as above but Irish...

and at the risk of being too mainstream for this group, both Dave
Matthews and Bruce Springsteen have very fine new releases out. No
internet access for this station unfortunately. They are a Clear
Channel station but there was such an outcry when the format changed
that they changed it back, to my enormous relief! I really mourned
this station while it was gone.

If you are interested in alt.country, KSYM out of San Antonio does
this pretty well in a college station format, and does have internet
broadcasting, as well as the aforementioned blues show, punk show and
so on.

I doubt anyone but me is interested in the Quebec blues scene, but
this and more can be found at live365...
