Sorry Rich, WHTZ and Z-100 are one and the same.  I know Z-100 is
top 40...I don't listen often, but WNEW plays more of a variation
of the "music scene".  O.K, so maybe I'm not as "up" on music as
I might have thought, I don't listen to the college stations.
But for the "average" person out there who listens to the NYC
stations, they've never heard of Kate Bush.

MTV has shown videos from many groups I've never heard of/seen before
(embedded between the top hits)...and I *HAVE* watched U68.  It's
good, and I *DID* see the real Kate Bush video (much better than
the other version).  I don't, however, prefer one station to the
other...it depends on what I'm looking for.

I wasn't looking for a flame when I wrote the first article, just
stating some opinions.  But thanks, Rich, you've been the first
to flame me since I've been on the net!  (I think it was a flame...
even if only a "little" one. :-) )
