==============================================================

WXPN (a public radio station at 88.5 FM in Philadelphia) has a
syndicated show on American Public Radio called "World Cafe."  This
show is a mixture of new alternative music, world music, and some
oldies, along with in-studio interviews and performances.  The show
stresses recently issued CDs.

WXPN has been experimenting with this type of format for a few years
now, and was given a grant to create "World Cafe."  The host for this
show is David Dye, a seasoned radio personality with varied musical
interests.  The result is a professionally produced show with the
diversity of a college station.

World Cafe plays a mix of recorded music, interviews, in-studio
sessions, and special features.  The music is a mixture of alternative
pop, folk, rhythm and blues, country, ethnic music, and even some
mainstream pop.  (They do not play Paula Abdul, Janet Jackson,
Megadeath, etc. but will play Paul Simon, James Taylor, etc.) 

Features vary from an "Album of the Week", where a new
album is analyzed and different cuts are played throughout the week, to
shows highlighting a particular artist, instrument, or type of music, to
"My Three Songs", where listeners send in three songs they think go
together nicely.  Each week, some listener gets to introduce his or her
three songs on the show.

World Cafe has held interviews with Bruce Cockburn, Happy Rhodes,
Timbuk3, Vinx, Christine Lavin, The Innocence Mission, Indigo Girls,
Michelle Shocked, and many others.

It would not be unusual to hear Bob Marley, Timbuk3, Bonnie Raitt, Happy
Rhodes, Bruce Cockburn, 3 Mustaphas 3, Yo La Tengo, Don Henry, Poi Dog
Pondering, Paul Simon, Lyle Lovette, kd Lang, and Crash Test Dummies
during one show.

Those of you who are interested in these artists (and a good mix of
music, too :-) should check with your local public radio station and ask
when the show airs.  If they don't carry it, ask why not.

Disclaimer: I am in no way connected to WXPN or World Cafe other than
being a very satisfied listener, and a contributor during their fund
drives. (and I've won two CDs so far!)
