Positive Vibes For The Masses!

Oracle was at it again for yet another week, so keep tuning in and turning on to keep those great vibes the whole week long.  A great rest over the Easter weekend and the time to accumulate more tunes resulted in a great show.  Have a listen here and see what all the buzz is about:  http://cjamlog3.cjam.ca/test-program-guid/

In other news:  The CJAM Jammy Award winners were announced in a cool, laid back ceremony at the FM Lounge in Windsor.  What a great night.  Congratulations to all.  We are all winners whether we received the trophy or not just by virtue of having the privilege of having a show on the fm dial.  I am very proud to be a part of CJAM.  Check out the results by clicking here:  http://cjamlog3.cjam.ca/

P.S...I'm still amazed that Oracle made it to runner up in the roots, folk etc...music category.  Thanks a bunch to all for listening and voting!!!

British Invasion!

Yes, the red coats are coming!  Okay, so maybe that's not quite it.  The British Invasion musically was not so threatening and brought to our shores a great new way of looking at rock 'n' roll.  In the quirky Oracle fashion British Psychedelic music is explored along with surrounding areas in the UK including a selection from some of her colonies such as South Africa, Australia and Canada (with the exception of a couple of sneaky devils from the USA that crept into my playlist-long story, best not to ask).  Well, technically the USA did a stint as a colony...so there!  Download, tune in & turn on by clicking here:  http://cjamlog3.cjam.ca/test-program-guid/
