thanks for sharing Sarah!!

Thank you, Sarah!!!

Since they're going for June 20th as the impact date, I imagine it's a really great sign that many stations have already been playing it.
At least I hope so!

Well, I am a little relieved as this is MUCH better than the one I heard earlier with horrible sound and that appeared to cut off in the middle. PHEW. I think this one sounds really great!!! I also must say "You go on with your bad self John McVie for that bad as# bass line."

Finally, if this does not make it - I am further saddened by the pathetic state of radio.

Sarah, were is your radio station? Are you a Jones Affiliate? I do mornings on a radio station in the Arkansas Ozarks. We play classic rock, nothing new, so I don't get promo copies anymore. I sure miss the freebies. thanks for your link.

The download on KBCO's website was only 20kbs, and was a .wma file, which is why the sound quality was so low.

Also, KBCO posted the "single remix cold," which has an abrupt ending. Sarah posted the "single remix fade."
(By the way, Sarah, and hopefully not sounding greedy... but will you be posting the "cold" version too?)

We are in East Tennessee.. and.. luckily (IMO, anyway) our transmitter county falls like, HALF of a HAIR outside of all the surrounding metros.. so we do things pretty much however we want.

We have an OLDIES station.. and I mean OLDIES, late 40s, 50s, 60s ONLY.. over 2,500 songs in our library

(Actually, there is one song from 1972, I think, but it sounds very 1968. Rockin' Pneumonia, Johnny Rivers!) We have a Red Hot Country Station (Blahhhhhh).. and a News/Traditional/Talk/Sometimes Gospel/Sometimes New Country/Whatever We Feel like Doing/News-Comes-First-but-here's-some-music-between-mobile-reports-about-murders-and-auto-crashes!!! station. That station, I don't know what it is about it, but it's the baby. It's been #1 in this region since we first started broadcasting in 1946. Our 12:30 Midday news anchor has been doing the same newscast with the same sponsor in the same timeslot .. completely unchanged, for 50 years as of May 19. I hope to God I don't turn into that.

We're a Westwood One affiliate, but we signed up with Jones to get Oldies Prep Online and Country Prep Online, and as a package deal, we get the chartbreakers or whatever it's called cds weekly with all the new singles for each format.

I love radio - and I love where I work, but I will, hopefully, be moving to a larger broadcasting company within the next few years. I'd love to hear your show!

I don't think there is a cold version.. I think that was just cut off. Both of the versions I have on Hit Disc and Chartbreakers are fade.

If I see it, I'll pop it up. Now, I'm feeling like I should post the Peacekeeper Lindsey-Only radio edit. I didn't know that most stations were playing the version with Stevie.. all the ones here are rockin' LB alone. Do people need that one?

Johnny Stew · #9 06-16-2003, 03:59 PM

Hi Sarah... the promo single on ebay, which is currently going for $52(!!!!) has two tracks... the "single remix fade (3:49)," and the "single remix cold (3:36)."

I'm guessing they've issued two versions of these promo discs.

There's a radio edit of Lindsey's solo version of "Peacekeeper" (the one that originally surfaced on the ACLU promo disc)?
Cool!

I don't think anyone has a radio edit of that, so if it's not too much trouble, I'm sure we'd all greatly appreciate it if you could post it.

Now if only they had kept the original instrumentation from his solo version, and added Stevie's harmony vocals to that, we'd have had a "perfect" version.

Hey Johnny. $52 is ridiculous. I hope I can find the cold one just so those dirty thieves' golden egg turns into scrambled eggs. If I can find the cold version, I'll put it up for sure.

I'll listen to our version of Peacekeeper again just to double check, but I'm pretty sure it's Lindsey only. I heard it long before I got SYW on cd, (the day it came out

) and I remember thinking, "Oh, Stevie did some harmony on this?"

I'll dig through the discs in my filing cabinet and desk drawers. (That might take a while, I have no organizational skills.) If that version is different from the Lindsey/Stevie radio edit, I'll put it up.

I love it too, sure beats working. I've been doing it for 27 years now. I've been in a bigger market not major but big (Little Rock, AR). I love it here in the Ozarks it's so peaceful. Our station, Hits 96, just came out on top in the Arbritron ratings, we haven't been #1 in a long time and it feels so good. We have a web site but we don't stream. Wish we could get the comps like Clear Channel stations then we could get free first row tickets.

Wow 52 bucks, I've got a couple of boxes full of promo disc and 45's from the 80's and early 90's. Look for them soon on ebay, lol.

Sarah · #12 06-16-2003, 04:37 PM

Number 1 on Arbitron is a beautiful thing, isn't it?

My sister's station, Oldies 96.5 WOXL in Asheville bumped ClearChannel's KISS COUNTRY (kiss fm) out of number one. THAT hasn't happened in like, a gazillion years, and ClearChannel is PISSED. They demanded that Arbitron extend the Metro so that it would be out of WOXL's listening area.. (they have 100,000 capability, but are only using 25K now, KISS FM is using the entire 100K).. sadly for ClearChannel, WOXL management was too smart- they bought a repeater and broadcast on another signal that extends into the rest of KISS FM's listening area.

I love that!

Do you guys use SS32 with touch screen and all that?

Still off topic, but, you SHOULD sell your promos if you don't want them anymore. People love that stuff for some reason.. I guess because it's rare. I got tired of trying to keep cool promo stuff. It made me a packrat. For the most part, I just toss that stuff in a filing cabinet or in the trashcan now.

Thanks a lot Sarah, I don`t think we would have heard this over here on the radio within the next 2 months as Peacekeeper still has some regular airplay... (which is great imo)

Laura posted this morning on Tracys website and was the first to notice that there was a strange sounding part but I didn't know what she was talking about as the radio link, that was posted earlier was of crappy sound quality. Now I listened to the song and realized what she meant...
What`s going on at 1:13 min ("here is the place...) for about ca 5 seconds? Is it a different sound quality/mix? Is it an afterwards added part which doesn`t sound the same? Can anybody hear that?

Sarah · #14 06-16-2003, 04:50 PM

that is an outrageously obvious overdub, IMO.

She changed the notes she sang for the "Here is a place" part.. I guess in effort to sound more sassy, maybe? Stevie's vocal right there is definitely NOT the same as it is on the cd.

Damn, John kicks ass.

No, I've used a Scott system with touch screen before, I've used Arakis it really sucks, now we are using Wavestation, it's pretty nice but I really miss cueing 45's and playing spots from carts like we did in the good old days. Congratulations on beating Clear Channel!
