This is the WMBR Music Director twitter feed. They don't like it. They didn't like the computer machine at first either.

We are deeply saddened by the news of Amp Fiddler passing. Our hearts go out to his beloved family, dear friends, and the entire music community during this difficult time.

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

@katisjewell @wmbr @zaxxon25 Definitely Patrick Bryant.

@consequence Lloyd Cole's On Pain. It might even be the best thing released this year and it isn't even close.

[regular steve albini @electricalWSOP]

Make a list circa mid-80s: Morrisey, Lydon, Rick Astley.
Kinda nuts who turned out the best by a mile.

@waxpoetics Lloyd Cole's On Pain.

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

This is the best record I've heard so far this year and it's not even close! @Lloyd_Cole

@yeproc gets the goldest of gold stars for the forthcoming reissue of Marshall Crenshaw's Field Day! Yay!!!

Rest in peace Ahmad Jamal 🕊️

An irreplaceable talent, navigating the keys with a deft and elegant touch which we will never forget.

One of the most important and influential musicians responsible for the development of Jazz.

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

@JahHills @wmbr We completely agree! It is bananas.

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

@melnickjeffrey1 I'm bummed that his tour isn't getting any closer to us here in New England than Pittsburgh. Stinks.

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

@HeatherMGreene I guess not...ok, I'll wing it and let you know what I come up with. Alla besta.

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

@RoughTrade ...and it's not even close.

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

@HeatherMGreene Heather, CV here from UMass. I'm fixin' to go to Connecticut to buy a bottle of your amazing spirit but which one? I just can't figure it out on my own! I hope you're well!

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

@wmbr In ten days?!? Did you give enough advanced warning?

[WMBR Music Director @WMBRmusic]

After the overly sensitive version of "Just Like Heaven" during The Last Of Us, I am prepared to outlaw all overly sensitive versions of 80's songs. I'm looking at you too "Mad World."
