Hey Dallas Guys

Recall the late '80s up until '96, when KERA-90.1FM did the World Music thing with Chris Douridas, Liza Richardson (before both landed at KCRW), Abby Goldstein, Paul Slavens,..?
The programming on 91.7 FM will be within the public radio "Triple A" (Adult Album Alternative) music format with diverse, adult-oriented playlists covering a broad spectrum of music such as folk, acoustic, world music, alternative and indie rock and country. Among the programs under consideration for the new station are World Café (distributed by NPR), Echoes (from Public Radio International), Undercurrents (from Native Voice One), American Routes (from American Public Media), plus music specials. NPR news headlines will be broadcast at the top of the hour. KERA's own local programs will include interviews, studio performances and arts-related news and commentary.

KXT Launch

When we were in OC, it was KPCC during the day and KCRW at night.

This sounds awesome - very much like the "music" hours on KCRW.

Yeah, I tune into the internet stream every now and then to listen to "Crisp Doritos" and Liza Richardson on KCRW.
