[Andy.Cahn at sonybmg.com]

Dear programmer -
 
Sony BMG Music and Joyride Media have a new lineup of show for you to
air this September and October, listed below in chronological order.
All shows will include the mix of music and insightful interviews that
listeners love about Joyride's productions.
 
Can you please review this list and let me know which ones are good for
your station?   I know that they're not all jazz, but these might work
for your stations' other format blocks.

You do not need to respond if you already did, but please feel free to
pass this along to anyone else at your station.
