You can listen to a continuous flow of music on the 24/7 stream on our website just like a real radio station. My method is to use the Safari ISP, tune to RadioFreeAmsterdam.org and punch the 24/7 stream button. That’s all you have to do—the music will keep playing until the computer shuts down.

Program milestones this month include Bob Putignano’s 300th episode of Sounds of Blue; Roger White’s 100th BluesTime International episode; and Bruce Pingree’s The Blues Show is headed for program No. 500 next month as well. The John Sinclair Radio Show logs Episode No. 920 this month.

All of our programmers and production staff contribute their work to this important project of the John Sinclair Foundation, offered free to the public throughout the universe for the past sixteen years since the formation of Radio Free Amsterdam on January 1, 2005.
