Thanks to my local radio station for playing Prince -3121

The local radio station I listen to here in Tampa have been playing songs from 3121 since the CD came out.. Pretty awesome since they are a community listener sponsored radio station that does not get corporate funds. Their DJ's are all volunteer and they play different formats all of the time. They have played 3121, Satisfied and Get on the Boat so far- that I have heard anyways..
I called to thank them for playing songs from 3121. The local clear channel staion called The Beat - that says it is Hip Hop & R&B have not played anything from the CD. When I called to ask them if they were going to, they kind of shrugged it off and said maybe..
So- thanks to WMNF 88.5FM Tampa!!!

cool

I hardly listen to radio anymore. But it's good to hear your local station plays Prince.

That is great. Good to know there is a radio station out there that is trying to satisfy their listeners.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

My dad heard 'Get on the boat' on the radio the day 3121 was released.

This station has volunteer D.J.'s that bring in their own Cd's- I am not sure how they could be bribed.

Now- I have called the Clear Channel stations and they will not play it eventhough I am a listener and I want to hear it- THEY go on bribes.. obviously!!
