Denver's new AM music station is...

S

showmo

...AM 1260, the City & County of Denver's traveler information radio. Their signal is about a 2 mile radius of downtown, so you may only here this station for about 2 minutes at most, on I-25, by Mile High Stadium. An identifying statement says that this is a "(unintelligible) music service of Switzerland." Eclectic is there music rotation...Toto to techno, Mocedades to mainstream adult standards. If they had more than several thousand potential listeners, they might make a run on Open Air's 1340. No announcers, commercials, legal ID (which I believe is WQQ262), just a mish-mash of different tunes. That brings the number of Denver Metro's AM music stations (English) to 4 1/2...KRWZ 950, KVCU 1190 KVOQ 1340 KDDZ 1690 and the half to KGNU 1390, as they mix in some talk and discussion along with their music programs.

KEZW appeals to listeners seeking refuge from the stale, talent-starved offerings of self-absorbed Denver FM jocks, whose obscenity-laced blabber gets old fast. 1430's family-friendly music selections make for fun and safe listening. They cleverly mix '40s big-band with 60-ish Goulet, Sinatra and Petula Clark, along with Carpenters' melodies of the 70's. No show-stealing, screaming lunatics here, just smooth-sounding air personalities hosting the music, not upstaging it.
 
I do like the addition of AM 1340's "Open Air" to the Denver-Boulder market. It complements well the programming at AM 1190 at the CU Campus. Not very many big-market cities have as a diverse musical mix on AM as here, agree?!
