I agree, Keith - it looks like xfm might be a bit of a let-down - I know
it's early days, but I'd hoped the playlist might be a bit more
inspiring. Still, I've heard the new arab strap single a couple of times
which is a step, albeit a small one, in the right direction. In saying
that, I've heard it more often on Radio One, which kind of flattens my
point.

Still, xfm played Teenage Fanclub's 'God Knows It's True' this morning,
so they can't be all bad. Maybe I'm listening to the wrong programmes -
has anyone come across a more encouraging slot?
