Pretty impressive list Bruce Cockburn is very good, did see him here in Moncton, front row center, really amazing to watch him in action.

But like every lists they will always forget someone...What about JP Cormier & the late John Allan Cameron ? :rolleyes:

Actually they do Pam play quite a bit of classical.

Until just recently it was pretty much all classical, opera etc. and I quite liked that but the changes they've made now include much more variety and it's for the better because we're getting to hear so many more really cool obscure tunes that have been selected and it gives air play to artists that now have more opportunities to have their material exposed and hence put food on the table and also invest more into their artistic initiatives.

If you click on that top part where all those numbers are, where it shows also "new on radio 2" it will show on the right hand side a choice of jazz, classical etc.

Last night while while we had dinner we listened the classical music they had on and it was very beautiful.

It helps if you connect alternate speakers to your computer as we recently did. We bought a set which have two small speakers and a third one which provides the bass effect. It cost approx. $100.00.

That way you can crank it on "bust" and enjoy!
Cheers, Ron J.

Thanks Char for the link:

I may have posted this before but I never get tired of listening to it and thought it was worth sharing. I hope it works.
