It features popular songs such as "Cry of the Potcake,"(about a stray dog) "Persevere," and "Tribute to Sonny Johnson" (a late Grand Bahama Island musician who passed away a few years ago).

>The music of Phil Stubbs has sounds of the sea with a lively beat. Phil Stubbs made the song "West End Move" popular on GBI a few years ago. I have purchased a CD of Phil Stubbs entitled "These Islands" but I am not crazy about this CD as much as I like the cassette I purchased entitled "Down Home."

Then another page will come up and here scroll down again and click on the little purple box with yellow lettering that says "click here for the Yahoo! Broadcast." The best time to hear Bahamian music on this station is on Sunday from 6-8 pm when they feature only Bahamian music. The radio station features a mix of American pop, reggae, soca and Bahamian music of course. Check it out for yourself.

>A popular CD now is the Best of the Best Volume 2 which features 14 Bahamian artists.

>Stress is a great song. You have good taste. I listen to the song through the on-line radio station.

>I'm going back to the Bahamas this summer and you can be sure that I'll try to stock up on Bahamian music.
