    Judges Skeptical About Ordering New 'Stairway To Heaven' Trial

    Judges Skeptical About Ordering New 'Stairway To Heaven' Trial

    Here's the latest from RTT news regarding the copyright lawsuit involving Led Zeppelin's Stairway to Heaven. Judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco have hinted that they don't feel there is need for a new trial in the copyright suit involving the widely popular Led Zeppelin song "Stairway to Heaven." The estate of the late Randy Wolfe argues parts of "Stairway To Heaven" were taken from the 1968 song "Taurus" from the rock band Spirit. The plaintiff
    Always Have A Backup System

    Always Have A Backup System

    The worst thing the owner of an internet radio station can face is loosing their entire audience in a flash. There are many variables that can cause a station to "drop" it's audience. When this happens, a mental checklist kicks in. Is it the automation software? the computer itself, the internet provider, a power outage, the stream provider? and the list could go on and on. Sometimes it will take awhile to figure out where the problem originates. In the meantime, there should
    Variety in Today's Music vs. Yesterday

    Variety in Today's Music vs. Yesterday

    I know I'm of that generation that really doesn't care for today's music at all. You're right----not at all. I can't even relate to 98% of it, nor do I care to. In 1967, my parents would complain about some of the "modern" music but and it's a big BUT, there were many songs on the pop charts that my parents loved. WHY? Variety! Back in the 60s, the music was very varied as I will show you. Also, it wasn't all about the visual. Bands really sang, played real instruments with
    Programmers Should Always Be Tweeking

    Programmers Should Always Be Tweeking

    Programmers of radio stations should never get too complacent. Fine tuning should always be included in a station programmers day. Complacency breeds boredum and stagnation. Small changes always keep the programing fresh. Recently I added a new program to Edgewater Gold Radio. It's called Nightmemories and features a softer blend of oldies mixed with popular standards. The program currently airs from 9pm to 5am weeknights. After listening to the show for a couple of weeks n

    Elton John Adds New Dates in New York and New Jersey for Farewell Tour

    Elton John has added seven new concert dates in April 2020 to his farewell tour in New York and New Jersey. The legendary musician will perform at all four major arenas in the New York area - Madison Square Garden in Manhattan, Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Prudential Center in Newark and NYCB LIVE's Nassau Coliseum on Long Island. Elton's three-year-long Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour kicked off on September 8, 2018. Tickets for the new dates will go on sale to the general
    Triggering Great Memories

    Triggering Great Memories

    Almost every song we grew up with has a memory or two attached to it. Music is a transport device that takes us back to hopefully a great time in our lives. The other day, I heard Conquistador by Procol Harum on my station Edgewater Gold Radio. It took me back to the Summer of 1972 when I was in the car with a few friends and we were on our way to discover the beaches of Rhode Island. We always drove to the New Jersey shore in the Summer so we figured that we would try someth
    Peak Listening for Internet Radio

    Peak Listening for Internet Radio

    Unlike terrestrial radio, the peak listening hours for internet radio are usually between 10am and 4pm weekdays and 10am and 5pm weekends. Terrestrial radio gets the most listeners in the morning between 6am til 10am and 2 til 6pm afternoons and between 10am and 3pm on Saturdays. Another interesting fact is that listeners tend to keep tuned in to internet radio much longer than on terrestrial radio. The average time listening for Edgewater Gold Radio is about 55 minutes. For

    Mick Jagger Comes Down Hard On Trumps Environmental Policy

    The following was prepared by RTT Music News. Mick Jagger came down hard on President Donald Trump's environmental policies at the end of the Venice Film Festival over the weekend. Jagger was in Lido on Saturday to promote the screening of the last film, The Burnt Orange Heresy, directed by Giuseppe Capotondi. The Rolling Stones frontman was asked to comment on a protest held at the red carpet in front of Venice's main venue, the Palazzo del Cinema, against climate change, an

    Remembering 9/11

    It was a normal Summer. I was in between jobs after working for a company in Manhattan for 27 years. I was also working for a local AM radio station playing standards music in New Jersey, where I lived. During the Summer months I met with a job recruitment and entrepreneurship group. The group met in tower 1 of the World Trade Center. On Tuesday September 11, I was scheduled to meet with my advisor at 8:30am on the 45th floor of tower 1. In the meantime, my Aunt Marie was dea

    Facing A Decision --Disco or No disco

    Internet radio has a great advantage over terrestrial radio. It allows us to see how well each day part does. It even shows us which songs or segments are a "turnoff" for the audience. Edgewater Gold Radio's classic disco show has been airing for over a year now. The show features real classic disco from the 70s and early 80s. This includes all of the radio classic disco hits as well as lots of club mixes as well. Statistics show that Edgewater Gold Radio's audience sticks ar
