Gord’s Golden Album — Gord Cooper

Gord’s Golden Album — Gord Cooper
12:00–13:00 Wednesday

I bought my first single in 1969… “Sugar Sugar” by The Archies! I continued collecting rather a cross section of music until my best friend bought me “Burn” by Deep Purple for my eighteen birthday! That was it… I became a life-long “rocker” from then on!

So my first love is rock, and my second and third love — although The Carpenters are my guilty pleasure! Aside from Rock, I also love Sixties & Seventies music, probably because I lived through them! lol

My love of radio has been going for more years than I care to remember, more than 25 years with Sunshine Radio on the Isle of Wight and a stint on internet radio with Vectis Radio for eight years, then I seemed to get offers to broadcast my shows all over the place!

A final thought… If someone had told me in 1969 not to collect the 6,000 plus albums I collected over the decades because you’d be able to access them and more on a mobile phone that fits in the palm of your hand I’d have never have believed it! Mind, I did enjoy collecting them!
