Media Copy: 'Songs For a Better Planet Volume II'
… some days ago I received a copy of "Songs For A Better Planet, Vol.
II" and I now want to thank you so much for sending it to me. It is again a
very fine and pleasant compilation and I immediately started playing it in
my radio shows here at Radio Voce Spazio, as you can see from the alleged
playlist. That CD will become an essential part of my musical diet and more
songs from it will surely follow on air in the next weeks of course. In the
meantime let me please thank you once again for your kind attention and wish
you all the best for Christmas and the New Year!
Yours, Massimo Ferro www.highway61.it

RE: Mike the DJ, Mike the Frenchy, RADIO ISA, France
Bonjour Brian, Thanks for the very good musical compilation and above
all for the good fight. My daughter who is 20 is stuying environment
protection so I am more than informed on these problems. It is a very
good thing to hear voices coming from your country as you know your
gouverment is not the most active country for fighting pollution
(Kyoto Treaty...) From here , USA don't give the feeling that they are ready
to try to change something in their way of consuming. But I 'm sure
that with time, men will have to change ... Back to the music. I would
say in this very particular case , the music is just the background of
a international cause. Honestly I didn't find a weak song , I didn't also
find one that is really above the others. I will air all of them from
time to time and I always give the translation to people to be sure
they can get the meaning .. Thanks again for the good music and
highest congratuations for trying to do something to preserve this planet.
Take care Mike from Lhuisiana, PENARD Mike c/o ISA Radio, FRANCE

RE: Peace Songs for a Better World
Hi
Brian, Thanks for sending me a copy of Song for a Better Planet. It's
important to me to have as many topical songs on subjects like ecology for
my radio program. I have played and/or will be playing Global Warming Blues;
For Whom; Pesticide Song; and The Air. Thanks again.

Brian - At last I have had the chance to
listen to this CD. All I Can Say is :"Wow!" Actually, I CAN say
more than that. The CD comprises an inspired choice of songs and
artists, many of whom I have emailed to obtain some further examples
of their work. Congratulations on a fine outcome for this great cause.
I am thinking of featuring the CD on an edition of my programme soon.

'Peace Songs' is Album of the Week
Hi Brian,
here is Massimo Ferro from Italy and these
are just a few lines to confirm that "Peace Songs For A Better World"
arrived here regularly a couple of weeks ago. I thank you so much for
sending it to me, I really enjoy nearly every song you choose for this
laudable project and I alreayd played some of them, as you can see from the
alleged playlists. I already decided that "Peace Songs.." will be "Album Of
The Week" in one of my next radio shows here and be sure I'll let you know
when this happens. I thank you again so much for your kind attention and
take the chance to wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

RE: Mike the DJ, Mike the Frenchy
Dear Brian,
So good to hear from you, to get good music
and to see you involved in such an association. Hope you are fine and
ready for a real canadian winter...Here nothing really new. Thanks so
much for the CD. I can't say all the tracks fit my format but some are
OK. I have selected tracks 1,2,6,8 and 11 to be on the air from
tomorrow. I remind you my own and special way of airing music. I prefer to
air songs by turn and only from time to time . When songs come on my
playlist, it is for a very long time butt they can be 2 weeks on the
air, disappear one month (or even more) , come back , there is no
precise rules , just the musical spirit of the program of the day. Once agai
thanks for all. The Froggie send you a friendly "CROAK"! Please confirm you
have got this email. Thanks Take care

Thank you for the opportunity to reserve a
copy of your "PEACE SONGS FOR A BETTER WORLD' CD." In the
interest of the 200 copies getting into the hands of those that can
best promote it through airplay and print I have forwarded your e-mail
to various Djs & reviewers that would give the CD the attention it
deserves. When the CD purchasing details are available please let me know
and I will spread the word on behalf of Iridescent Music. We will
purchase a copy along the way as Iridescent Music doesn't review CDs
at this time.
Best to you with your endeavours.

Hi, there...
Sure, count me in; sounds potentially quite
intriguing.
I'm the host of a morning drive time
show on KRCL in Salt Lake City. We're a 25,000-watt non-commercial
community station celebrating twenty four years on the air. With
translators, simulcasts, and such, our signal can be heard by most folks in
Utah, as well as in parts of Idaho, Wyoming, and Nevada. We also webcast at
www.krcl.org
I play a mix of music, with an emphasis on
contemporary folk,
singer-songwriter stuff, and jazz vocals, but
with a bit of world, spoken word, blues, bluegrass, old soul, and
whatever else appeals thrown into the mix.
