Broadcasting from the heart of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, Chuck McNicholl hosts a rock ’n’ roll oldies program on CO-OP Radio 100.5 FM, CFRO airing the fourth Monday of every month from 7 to 8 pm.
At the beginning of each new year, the program opens in remembrance, commemorating the rock ’n’ roll artists who passed away in the previous year — celebrating their legacy through the music they left behind.
Throughout the remainder of the year, the show evolves around seasons and conceptual themes relevant to each month. Episodes may draw connections through recurring ideas such as colours, eyes, money, travel, or other shared threads found within classic rock ’n’ roll recordings. Occasionally, the focus shifts to a specific artist or group, allowing for a deeper exploration of their influence and sound.
For many listeners, these songs also carry memories — of family, friends, and relationships — moments in time when this music first mattered. The program invites those memories back, one record at a time.
Broadcast live from Columbia and Hastings, the show reflects CO-OP Radio’s community spirit while remaining firmly rooted in the spirit of rock ’n’ roll oldies — the hits, that defined a generation.
Tune in to 100.5 FM, or listen online and spend an hour with the music that has stood the test of time.
