[JPL] 2009 Adds for MOJA Radio

[Jackson, Bobby]

Hi Russ,

Don't assume we knew that MOJA meant Modern Jazz.....

I thought the MOJA you were referring to was the number ONE in Swahili.....

That's what I assumed you meant.

Hope all is well my friend.

Aloha,

Bobby

My good radio/records/music industry friends...very soon a new online  
radio entity will emerge (or make that BURST) upon the scene...MOJA  
RADIO.  If any of you followed the efforts of myself and my partner  
Michelle Sammartino on the satellite radio channel Beyond Jazz (RIP)  
then you know we covered all the wonders of modern jazz from Fusion  
through all the various facets and sub-genres that have evolved since  
the mid-1960's to today.  Well, we've been hard at work since the  
powers that were pulled the plug on our little effort of 7+ years and  
we're just about ready to launch the channel online at  
www.mojaradio.com.  We just wanted the jazz community to know that  
we've been keeping up with all the music that's been released since  
our late 2008 demise and when we launch next month the releases below  
will be in our current rotation, along with thousands of pieces of  
music that cover the genre we call MOJA...which is our personal  
moniker for our brand of MOdern JAzz.  So thank you all for your  
continued support and especially for the  music service (we know it's  
expensive!) and all that great music that falls between the cracks of  
smooth and traditional will find its home again when MOJA Radio  
launches!  Of course I will continue my efforts on my weekly program  
JAZZ AMERICA on Voice of America, playing the best of jazz past and  
present, including new music from the traditional side of things, but  
this is all about MOJA right now and we wanted to give you an update!
