Jim Alfredson Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 That's great! Just as we were going to get on XM with Groovadelphia, they merged with Sirius and the station (and DJ) we were going to be on got axed. Nice to hear we're finally getting some airplay. I bet it won't show up on ASCAP. Thanks for letting us know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA Russell Posted October 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 I heard another track from the album on Sirius this afternoon at about 3:20! This one was Jimmy Smith Goes to Washington. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randissimo Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 Girl friend heard "Jimmy Smith Goes To Washington" on FX early this week while driving to work.. Said it was from the live CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GA Russell Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 I heard Jimmy Smith Goes to Washington on Sirius again today. What may be noteworthy is that this time it was at 5:20 in the evening. The disc jockey didn't come on while I was in the car, but that's Mark Ruffin's time slot. The previous times I've heard the band were during Ulys Cathy's (sp?) show. Ruffin is the program director. I don't know to what extent he programs the music on other guys' shows.

GA Russell Posted October 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 It keeps getting better. This afternoon Larry Willis was guest-hosting for Mark Ruffin, and after a long set I heard him say (at about 4:40 pm) "...and before that, the band that is the wonderful blend of jazz and fusion, Organissimo!" So guys, Larry Willis knows about you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GA Russell Posted November 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 This will be the last time I post saying that I heard Jimmy Smith Goes to Washington on Sirius. I heard it today about 1:40 pm. Honest to Goodness, I haven't heard a song so often on Sirius ever! Second place would be Blossom from Sonny Rollins' last album.

birdmonk Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 I assume they have the live CD, then. Very cool! Mark Ruffin who programs the Sirius / XM Jazz Channel would have gotten the CD from both me and Terri Hinte - can take a while for a CD to get in the system but once it's in, it's in for a while too - up to people who subscribe to let us when "airplay" has kicked in though since that's hard to pin down...Mitchell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
