John... I'd like to fill you in on the fact that there are numerous radio
shows which broadcast from Toronto that would play music from groups like
Outside.

Open format every other Monday 2:30-5 pm 88.1 CKLN Divadee
'Shifting Gears' every other Monday 8-9 pm 105.5 fm DJ Steven

Sunday: 'Daves Dance Show' CKLN Jeremy Mike and Kenny

(this list was compiled by D.C. and can be found in the latest issue of
Tribe magazine)

This list does not include the innumerable pure jazz shows but dance music
shows which include acid jazz. So check it out before you dis your area.

For those of you outside of broadcast range, sorry for the localised post but
I just gotta represent. We have an acid jazz list here in Toronto for
localized info in order to save you folks out there relatively
useless posts as a response to previous complaints about this issue.
