Swing-Sked
Welcome to a great
Wikispace, where you will find plenty of swing music! More specifically,
you will find music dating back from the 1930s to the 1950s. The introduction
explains the type of music you’ll find, what all of the codes
mean (for example, ET means Eastern Time, PT means Pacific Time, etc.),
as well as, what format the station is in.
Beneath the Introduction
area, you’ll find the station table. It’s divided into
four parts: Station or Program Web site, Listen, Start ET, Start PT
and Length. The Listen section is what you really want. That’s
how you can tune in to the stations. But, if you run into any problems
getting a station to load, you may want to head over to the station’s
Web site to see if you can get help there.
I’ve gotten
totally addicted to Radio Dismuke, which is a continuous stream of
music from the 1920s and 1930s. I also really enjoy how they list
the special programming geared toward this type of music throughout
the week. You can find that underneath the main set of stations listed.
Beneath the individual
days on the table, you’ll find the archives. That's where you
can find places that have older broadcasts stored so that you can
download and listen to them at your leisure!
There are times
when I listen to this kind of music and I’m certain I was born
in the wrong century. Enjoy listening. I know I will!
