Give it up!!
P.S. I sponsered you last year for Terry Fox run (under my name) but you blocked my responses from my home source. I was willing again to donate but????

C'mon andrew, buck up.

There was no donation from you under the name "andrew" last year.

The reason I've lost patience with your "do you take your kids to church?" and other slights against my kids (the kids are totally out of bounds) is because there have been several names/handles/personas posting comments from your IP address.

And yes, one of those names donated to my Terry Fox Run last year, and I appreciated it. But I'm starting to suspect you post as "andrew" when you want to be a total dick. You can change the name, but a dick is a dick.

@andrew

And, I'm not sure what you want me to give up.

If I want to post vintage CFNY clips, I will.

Until very recently, I had a number of old Live to Air shows on tape, dating back to when Shep was at RPM. I regret not hanging on to them bow, even if I don't have a cassette player any more.

Pls post the clips. I'd love to hear what you have got.

Mike, I used to listen to Chris religiously, he played some great stuff, where is he now?
If CFNY wanted to make ammends they would try to get Shep on the air again. for the live to airs.

I recently caught the last bit of a "cribs" episode on MTV Canada that featured Chris Sheppard...the impression that I got was that he is living modestly somewhere in the 905 region. Can anyone fill in the details?

Andrew (needs a more distinct name)

I really need a better name. Damn me for using my real name.

Maybe I should change it to McNulty.
Sigh...

Chris Sheppard was cool at first but he really began to get under my skin fast. I was never a big fan.

Chris Sheppard's delivery was rather pretentious, so I could see it getting under your skin.

But you have to admit from this clip that his playlist was all over the map.

Chris brought electronic music into Toronto, beyond the bootleg tapes from friends from Europe. What he played was beyond anything on the air at the time and he sought out more and more music to give us the beats we needed.

Thanks for the blast from the past Mike! Those were the days - high school and partyin' Saturday night listenin' to the Shep on the wheels of steel! I loved when he used to just go on about his "uptight yuppie neighbours" lol

After Shep we'd head to The Danforth and listen to Deadly Headly while we chowed on greek food.

I'd love to hear more Shep from anyone who has clips.

Thanks bro :)

Wow... thanks for posting!!!

S...H...E...Double P... A-R-D was way ahead of his time! Listened to him during the time when his show was syndicated across Canada.

Anyone remember the name of the nightclub that Shepp used to play in exclusively and was broadcast live on CFNY ?

Does ANYONE have any clips of Shep's work on Club 102? I'd kill to groove to the Shep again!

I just found a videotape in my attic that pretty much runs. It was from the CFNY/Muchmusic Chris Sheppard Club 102 Simulcast. Shoot, when was that? Early 90s? I was trying to figure out when I recorded that, so I googled and found this site

Very cool, this was before Shep developed that God-awful pretentious anything-but-British accent.

Back in the days you could hear NIN one second, then The Jam's (KLF) "It's Grim Up North" the next. From alternative to ambient, industrial to trance, Shep played it all and it was always a great musical education.

I had no problems with Martin Streek (RIP) though, he also did a great show despite being not as varied as Shep, you could still hear everything from Nitzer Ebb to PWEI to Happy Mondays to KMFDM. Lots of great musical history on Saturday nights on 102.1 CFNY.

Thanks for the little memory jog.

I met him in 1982 as he was the DJ at Dominos on Isabella in Toronto. Ya - he knew where he wanted to go then and he made it. I am proud to have met him. I hear he is doing well in the burbs of Toronto's west end. Hope he continues to make appearances as he does. Yet I never know where or when. I would definitely show up if I knew.
The Shep rocks.

Take a look at this site. It's just great. You hear live to air. Just click on (Click Here) and there it is. The original radio as if you were transported back to the 90's

LOL - I listened to the clip to see if Sheppard could make it all the way through the 2 minutes without mentioning Skinny Puppy.

Of course he couldn't. What was I thinking?

I am on the hunt for old video clips for CFNY's ill fated Club 102 on CHCH TV in Hamilton. I have seen one still clip and that has been it.
