WUMB's darlings

In this economy, why the Commonwealth of Massachusetts operates a commercial-sounding AOR/AAA radio station is beyond my comprehenension.

Here is a listing, compiled by the members of NEFolknRoots, of artists and songs that music director John Laurenti, who was hired for his commercial pop radio (WBOS, WZLX) experience and station GM Pat Monteith dictate the station plays over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again....

Name: WUMB's darlings

Table Description: Can you name that tune in two notes? Probably because you've heard WUMB play it a gazillion times before. Each week a sometimes good, sometimes mediocre but mostly a "clunker" song seems to get stuck in the music director's program list and played and played and overplayed to nausia. Why? Who benefits? Remember, each time a "darling" is aired, some other great classic "chestnut" or non-playlisted new song is not.

Lucy Kaplansky Life Threads Life Threads / "Inspired by La Prairie's new Life Threads fragrance collection. The song is a fresh look at a familiar theme that runs throughout Lucy's recent songwriting: the ties that bind us together. The collaboration between Lucy and La Prairie is a first for both and a true example of lives weaving together to form new stories and connections. After La Prairie President Lynne Florio approached Lucy following a New York City show, the two hit it off and eventually turned into a partnership. In conjunction with the new single, Lucy will be appearing at various retailers of La Prairie's new line throughout the year. The track will be available on iTunes as well as at each of Lucy's in-store performances. The official release date of the single is October 1st. http://www.lucykaplansky.com http://www.lifethreads.com http://www.laprairie.com" 10/16/09 (EP, not an album) 12/1/09 2/28/10
