   Radio Free Colorado - A Successful New I

   Radio Free Colorado - A Successful New Internet Radio Station   
      
   NOTE: NEW CONNECTION URL'S GIVEN AT BOTTOM OF MESSAGE!   
      
   Radio Free Colorado   
   What Radio Once Was   
      
      
   Radio Free Colorado, a non-commercial Internet Radio Station, plays a lot of   
   music you probably haven't heard in such a long time and have since   
   forgotten how much you love. It's such a thrill when a forgotten song comes   
   on and you say "Hey, I love this song" and all your fond memories of it come   
   rushing back to you.   
      
   Our "Genre" (what kind of music we play) is VERY diverse. We play   
   Modern/Classic Rock, Progressive Rock, Alternative (Modern and Retro), Pop,   
   Billboard Classics, and Top Radio Hits from the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's.   
   We also play some Ambient/Instrumentals. No Rap or Hip-Hop, Classical, Jazz   
   or Swing.   
      
   Radio Free Colorado streams music LIVE over the Internet using a   
   high-fidelity 128 kbps MP3 stream. We use professional sound processing   
   equipment to achieve a sound quality which we believe is superior to   
   virtually all other 128 kbps streams.   
      
   Any computer with a DSL, Cable Modem (or faster) Internet connection that   
   has a download speed capacity of at least 128 kbps can tune in.   
      
   Virtually all MP3 music players are capable of receiving live MP3 music   
   streams over the Internet. Any music player compatible with streaming MP3   
   audio can receive Radio Free Colorado's broadcast.   
      
   Our MP3 broadcast stream is compatible with virtually all music software   
   programs and works with PC's running Windows, Apple computers running OS X   
   and other machines running Linux or Unix.   
      
   Radio Free Colorado is NOT beholden to anyone. There is no pre-approved   
   "playlist", no one tells us what we can't play. Listeners can, however make   
   song requests and if we have it we will play it.

   These songs are just a partial list of some of the "rarer" songs that not   
   only don't get played on the radio anymore but are hard to find as well.   
   Virtually all of the songs on this sample list have long since been sent to   
   the record company boneyard, which is why we play them. We have over 1,400   
   songs of all varieties and the list grows every day.   
      
   Artist and Song suggestions and requests are gladly accepted! We would like   
   to grow RFC enough to satisfy a variety of tastes yet remain completely non   
   commercial.
