SiriusXM has rolled out a series of Deep Cuts channels, such as:

​

• 1st Wave Deep Cuts • 80s on 8 Deep Cuts • 90s on 9 Deep Cuts • Classic Rewind Deep Cuts • FLY Deep Cuts • Hair Nation Deep Cuts • Lithium Deep Cuts • Octane Deep Cuts • Ozzy's Boneyard Deep Cuts • Pop2K Deep Cuts • Prime Country Deep Cuts • Turbo Deep Cuts • Yacht Rock Deep Cuts

These channels are just part of our huge launch of over 40 new app-only music channels this fall, so stay tuned for even more!

But that's not all! They've rolled out jockless versions of 60s Gold, 70s on 7, Prime Country, Classic Rewind, Classic Vinyl and Soul Town.

I tried out Prime Country Deep Cuts for an hour or so. The first two songs I heard were both Billboard country No. 1s, one by Clint Black, the other by Lorrie Morgan. I couldn't recall the last time I'd heard either song on Prime Country, though. The other tracks played fit the same mold: substantial Billboard hits by significant artists of the time, but not programmed regularly, if at all, by Prime Country.

I checked out 80s on 8 Deep Cuts, from memory I heard "I Know There's Something Going On"-Frida; something the Commodores with the word "Celebrate" that I sorta recognized, and something from Madonna before "Holiday".

Wasn't "Holiday" her first hit? I didn't realize anything previous by her got much airplay.

"Holiday" was indeed her first hit. Before that, in 1982, she hit #3 on the US Dance chart with "Everybody" which is what 80s on 8 Deep Cuts played. I had never heard it or heard of it

I believe 1st Wave Deep Cuts was released during the last new channel drop. I remember checking it out before today's drop.
