Sam Kopper above, on BCN at the 312 Stuart St studio. Probably 1969,
when he was doing the morning show.

Continuing with The Goodbye to WBCN final 4 days of Broadcast.

This is the one that explains the beginnings of progressive WBCN
radio and what Freeform BCN is today. This is my favorite segment
of the 4 day special because this is where we hear from Sam Kopper

who hired JJ Jackson, Charles Laquidara, Norm Winer, Maxanne Sartori.
We will also hear from the founder of WBCN Ray Repien,
and the first voice of WBCN radio,
Harold “Mississippi Fats” Wilson (aka Mississippi Harold Wilson)
