      Just delivered:
      Two new jingles for my collection of personal cuts:

      WCAU-fm oldies cut from PAMS ‘Grid’
      Custom Christmas acapella

      I have also uploaded them to Soundcloud.

        Utterly excellent, Geoffy B !!

        I couldn’t snap my fingers that fast even if I practised all day.

          With that great old jingle + the superb custom acap you should get a RADIO show!

            Thought you might like to listen to the shimmering vocals in more depth, so here are three of the mixes:

            1: With chimes
            2: Just vocals/no effects
            3: ‘The hunky one’ with its long final note

            Breathtaking.

              VERY impressed, Geoff!

              1) The original WCAU-FM package was a very “refreshing” approach to “oldies” for its time, yet “contemporary”
              – so good it was rolled out “backwards” to the bigger CBS FM “new” oldies stations in New York etc. And spot-on vocals!

              2) A JAM cut /acapella with a really good BASS vocal in the harmonies – something too few stations “want” / producers “offer” these days
              – what a “grown-up” vocal sound – excellent!

              :^)

                Being formerly from Los Angeles and for awhile a loyal K-Earth 101 listener, I have always had a love for the CAU Grid (aka “Gold Mine”) package. That was a good resing of it.

                  Any excuse for some audio – even if I’ve “re-packaged” it just a little from its last time out… :^)

                  Geoff’s cut is about 2/3rd along.

                    Well done Geoff. Lovely jingles there and, as Iain has stated, cracking bass on the accapella. I was beggining to think the bass sound at JAM was slipping and not as strong as it was with Jim Clancy. However, Jeff Buckley proving he can do the biz when needed so well done to all :)

                      Jeff Buckley? Has he suddenly emerged from the dead? Voice is a bit low for bass, mind.

                        Bahhh!!! You’re slacking Sean! Even I can click my fingers that fast even though I’ve got arthritis in some of them lol! ;-)

                        Love the jingles Geoff, great slick harmonies. Especially love the acpaella ending of the CAU Cut 4 Goldmine jingle!

                          Jeff Oxley, not Buckley. My mistake! I’m sure it’s Jeff doing the bass now

                            Congratulations Geoff!
                            Wow!
                            Had a quick listen the day they were posted (first thought another set of irritatingly good JAM Geffy B jingles)
                            Now had a chance to really listen.. double wow!
                            The acappella is everything you would want and expect from JAM.

                            For me the interesting bit was the PAM’s cut (I confess it was not a familiar cut to me) it’s a gamble, do you have a re-sing of the same old cuts that have been sung hundreds of times? or go left at the traffic lights.
                            IMHO This was a really nice choice. Even more interesting is the fact that the legendry Dallas thick harmony is not there, in fact the vocal chart only seems to get busy on the word Barton.

                            Nice job!

                              Nice job!

                              Many thanks for your very kind message.
                              Incidentally, I only really knew the WCAU-fm cut from the PAMS 70s sampler:
                              Cut 7 on the list: http://www.pams.com/samcon.html#sampler3
                              Audio around 1:04: http://www.pams.com/audio/sampler3.mp3
