As some of you may know, I am a disc jockey on Sirius XM satellite radio. I can be heard every morning from 6:00 AM - 12:00 PM (EST) on indie rock station, Sirius XMU.
In an effort to make things easier and more efficient, I recently suggested we only play ONE song on Sirius XMU:
Glenn Frey’s, “Smuggler’s Blues.”
It’s on the soundtrack to the 80’s television series “Miami Vice.”
I believe streamlining our playlist to nothing but the song “Smuggler’s Blues” would take a lot of pressure off the audience. I know I personally get overwhelmed by all the different music choices out there. Simplifying the programming on our station to just the Glenn Frey song “Smuggler’s Blues” would make things a LOT easier for both the listeners and the Sirius XMU staff.
I’m not gonna lie. This idea was met with some initial resistance by both Sirius XM management and our subscribers. However I think in due time this innovative new one song, “Smuggler’s Blues” format will be embraced by all.
I’m excited to announce that Sirius XMU will become the all-new “Sirius XM Smuggler’s Blues Radio” on Sunday, March 14th!
