They also have a station that plays nothing but the music of a-ha.
I only know one song by a-ha so I will sample this station.

Wow, I know a-ha had "Take On Me" that it but they are an international artist so maybe they have/had a more prolific career than we realize? eddiejinnj

They did have one other Top 40 U.S. hit that I know of, "The Sun Always Shines On TV" (doesn't it, though? [LOL]).

Just turned on the station. It said currently playing "Mohammed's Radio" but they played You're No Good and then Louise came on. Guess the track listing got stuck, but no other complaints.

They’re still huge in Europe, especially the Scandinavian countries. Their 2022 album “True North” was Top 5 in Germany, Norway, and Switzerland. |

The company that has this station is based in Dubai. They have over 500 stations online- dozens if not hundreds of single-artist stations: play.exclusive.radio/ |

The repeat cycle isn't too bad but of course they going to play her monster hits more than certain album cuts. eddiejinnj

The Boss and I discussed access to this great radio station and he mentioned he should put on his Homepage and I think that an excellent idea. eddiejinnj

I also heard the song "Kate" a few times which like would never happen on a traditional commercial radio station. The song is, imo, the epitome of the fusion between rock and country and showcased Glenn Fry with Linda doing a great duet/backing vocals. It really is a significant song, again in my opinion, historically in creating the country rock genre. eddijinnj

It's a good song and should have been included on one of the Eagles' albums. |

I have added information about the Linda Ronstadt exclusive station to the main webpage www.ronstadt-linda.com I noticed that the exclusive website only has Linda listed under "all stations" - she is not listed as pop, not listed as rock, as far as I can tell not listed under any category. I emailed them and said that with 38 Top Ten hits she should at least be included as a "pop" artist. How do they make a profit? |

Hey Boss: Linda had 10 Top 10 Hot 100 songs and 2 at number 11. Even with the Top Ten AC hits I don't think it would be 38. She had like 38 top 100 songs (21 of which hit the Top 40). Again, great idea to put the radio site link to your Linda page. I hope all is well. I was wondering myself how they make money. I am guessing that you think that Linda in a category/ies would make it easier to find her station? Maybe it was hard for them to categorize her because her diversity in music. eddiejinfl

They just played “I Will Always Love You” but listed now playing as “Back In The USA”, right now they are playing “The Tattler” and still now playing is listed as “Back In The USA”. Maybe it’s my tore up old iPad.

It exposes new fans to songs that never get played on real radio and I hear they play snippets of her talking sometimes. It’s a great idea and great link for Tony’s site. |

I heard "Hobo" for the first time on there yesterday. I loved that song and I remember a goofy friend of mine (a big
Kiss fan) laughed at that song. I like it because it has a story to it. eddiejinfl
