In Reply to: possibly a rule breaker - A poll from tuners? Is radio a trigger for what you buy or go to hear? posted by Timbo in Oz on April 27, 2007 at 23:41:21:
I listen to little radio, mostly in the car where it's usually ABC FM which is largely classical and my serious listening these days is mostly jazz. Very little in the way of jazz on air over here in Oz, but my main jazz listening on the radio is JazzTrack if I'm in the car at that time. Both Jim McLeod and Mal Stanley seem to have different tastes to me so I rarely buy anything from what I hear on air though it sometimes happens. When it does, it's usually someone I've never heard, or who I've heard and passed over but they play a track that grabs me and I race out and chase it down.I also listen to Margaret Throsby's interview at 10.00 am on weekdays if I'm in the car. Surprisingly, I seem to do nearly as well by picking up things from some interviewee's choices as I do from JazzTrack. Unfortunately a lot of the choices made by Margaret's guests are the standard classical reportoire which tends not to drive me to the record shops though I did race out and buy the Drottningham Baroque Ensemble's version of Vivaldi's Four Seasons on Bis after hearing a movement played by Clive Robertson on the breakfast program a few years ago. I've got quite a few classical recordings in my collection, not as many as I used to have, but if I buy classical these days, it's more likely to be new music rather than the standard reportoire.
