    “This could be a surprise hit in our format!”

  • Ted Striker, PD, WILN, Panama City:

    “I heard this at the Conclave and I love it. It’s got a cool, moody sound and the video is provacative and really cool. I’ll be one of the people to get this record rockin’!”

  • Beau Derek, MD, WNDV, South Bend:

    “We tested this and it did very well.”
