A sad loss.
Anyone else finds it odd that R2 mentions in the news how great GSH was but when did R2 last play any of his tracks ?
It's similar with their documentaries they tell us how great artists / record labels are/were BUT you rarely if ever hear anything by them played on the station |

That is very true and a bit poor from R2 _________________ I found out how you can hurt an insect.It's the bees knees |

I hear that Pink Floyd are being trailed as 'great' but we don't hear much of them normally on R2 do we ? |

I have heard Floyd on R2 but it's been on the night shows.Huey played the 12 min version of shine on as has Richard Alinson.Janice played a shorter version which i had not heard before _________________ I found out how you can hurt an insect.It's the bees knees |
