jjsint Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) Some of you may remember me. I was the guy that operated the Jazz Trading Post web site years ago. I now work for a jazz radio station that needs original programming. We are on the FM dial and have an internet stream too. We are looking for people that can prerecord a 2-3 hour show, once a week from home (its pretty easy to do). Once you have a show you can burn it on CDs and mail it in. If you have an interest, email me and we can talk. The only requirement is that you love jazz. cheers, Jim jjsint@baymoon.com Edited March 8, 2010 by Jim S.

Aggie87 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 1. Aren't most DJ's paid positions - outside of college radio perhaps? 2. Will you have the proper clearances/authorizations to play the music that is submitted to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will you have the proper clearances/authorizations to play the music that is submitted to you? 1. I don't know the answer that. 2. As long as discs are formatted as per my instructions the sound exchange data will be automatically collected. Terrestrial radio fees are already paid.

Spontooneous Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 No thanks on the DJ thing, Jim, but would you consider posting some of the old Jazz Trading Post graphics here for a new generation to enjoy?

Big Al Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 JIM!!!! What a pleasure to see you again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrdlu Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I'll do it, Jim! Like many members here, I have enough material to sink a ship. I'd also love to do some electro house and trance sets for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzkrow Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Jim is a great guy-and personal friend. The Jazz Trading Post was big many years ago and many of us picked up loved treasures-TOCJ, etc- from trading with posters/now friends from all over the world. Many Blue Note Board members participated. Hope Jim can find some DJs to share their knowledge and collections with Monterey area and internet jazz fans...

jjsint Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 No thanks on the DJ thing, Jim, but would you consider posting some of the old Jazz Trading Post graphics here for a new generation to enjoy? (I first encountered several of my friends on this board through the JTP.) Man! That was many hard drives ago. I wish I at least had the logo. BIG AL! Nice to see you! I have got some great replies. Thanks much and hope to hear from more Organissimo forum members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bill Barton Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Wow, blast-from-the-past time... JTP! Welcome to the Big O, Jim, nice to "see" you here. I've got my hands full already when it comes to doing radio shows but it looks like you've already generated some interest. Best wishes for mucho success. On the issue of deejays getting paid brought up earlier: Really? Good luck... I've been doing radio since 1974 and there was about a decade from the mid-1980s through 1996 when I actually (barely) supported myself doing mostly on-air work. It ain't shakin' now, I can tell ya. You'll be lucky if you break even much less make any $$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave James Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) Jim, I did jazz radio for about six years in the late '80's and early '90's. I know how that works. How does this work? Equipment-wise etc.? I might be interested. Can you PM me, or sent an email to davejames48@gmail.com Edited March 10, 2010 by Dave James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
