BigAl Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Just want to say re Janice Long, that her and Annie Nightebgale broke down the barriers placed in front of females being heard on radio. Even more so they didn't fall into the team of only playing mainstream music on the airwaves and have in many ways influenced my musical choices of today. It has taken me a long time to get the opportunity to broadcast live on air but I have followed their principles and refused to only play commercial chart music RIP Janice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
