Radio Recommendations

   Can anyone recommend a couple good radio stations that play mostly bop and post bop instrumental stuff? Think Miles, Coltrane, Blakey, up to Mehldau, Sands, and Akinmusire.
I’m looking for a traditional type of broadcast with an announcer that identifies song and artist, not an internet playlist. I’ve tried WBGO, Jazz24, JazzFm, and Real Jazz on Sirius. They all play way too much vocal stuff and R&B for my taste. I don’t want to hear people singing about the glories of jazz; I want to hear people playing the real thing.

Thanks!

	I don't listen to internet radio too much, except for some Pandora stations I made myself, but a friend of mine plays Real Jazz from Sirius XM radio, its not too bad. I'm going to move this post to our radio station section, you might find more stations in that section too.

	Made this account specifically for this thread! http://radiostationusa.fm/ has a vast array of jazz radio stations spanning the entire United States of America! Likewise, http://www.jazz88.org/ also boasts an incredible and distinct array of jazz albeit only during dusk. According to my tastes anyhow~ Edited by RGB - 15 Sep 2024 at 3:32pm

	Unfortunately, neither of those links worked for me, I wonder what the issue is.
