The Radio Station Blues

By Byron LaMasters

Jim isn't the only one in mourning over the loss of a radio station. The Houston Chronicle has more on the end of Houston's KLOL today.

Dallas also sort of lost a good station. When I was in town over the weekend, I flipped to 106.7 KKDL for some good dance music. Didn't happen. They apparently went from good dance / techno / trance / house music (my kinda music) to 90% hip-hop / R&B / Rap now (not my kinda music). How worthless. They don't even let you give listener feedback anymore.

i believe they did the same thing with 93.3/99.7 here in austin. i'm not complaining, though, i thought austin needed another r&b/rap station especially now that BEAT 104.3 is gone.

Are there any Liberal, progressive, Democratic Talk Radio Stations in Texas?
