| - Being of the classical/jazz bent myself, I was distressed to learn of the recent "transformation" of Radio 2. Listening to it the other day, I'm not impressed. It sounds like cosmopolitan middle-of-the-road music, still catering to boomers. They had Earth, Wind, and Fire Songs on two separate programs, for instance, and the DJ went on and on about them ("Well, I like 'em, but if you don't, indulge me for three and a half minutes...").
Another time, I happened to catch The Vinyl Cafe, and it featured some monotonous prattle about the wonders of Quebec City. It's not the sort of thing you want to help get you through navigating the mall parking lot on a Saturday morning, I can tell you.
