Program Title: The Best of Coffee,Tea or Pop! ® / Aéropop ®, les histoires !
Host / Researcher / Producer: Marc Denis
Air Canada In-Flight Audio cycle: July-August, 1993
From the late Eighties to the late Nineties, I had the pleasurable mandate of producing and hosting an in-flight audio program for Air Canada Airlines with carte blanche to boot. To be outlawed from entertaining in a bilingual fashion “on the air” in Montreal is one thing, let the government bureaucrats try and catch us “in the air”…around the world at 35,000 feet !
So… returning to my English-French modus operandi again, this time to a national and international audience of air travelers, I set out to interview in excess of 175 musical stars of the Fifties to the Nineties during that magic period to spice up the programs.
Included here is the 5th Anniversary of “Coffee, Tea or Pop!”®, a “Best Of” edition from the July-August of 1993 cycle run. Enjoy the hilarious anecdotes and insightful career stories of Paul McCartney, John Sebastian, Brian Wilson, Junior Walker, Lesley Gore, Paul Revere, both Phil and Don Everly, Paul Hoffert (Lighthouse), Pierre Bertrand (Beau Dommage) and many more. Le firmament des étoiles et des histoires inédites. Hey… who needs coffee or tea when pop goes down so good?
