Richie Ross
Introducing a new double act to East End Community Radio every Sunday from 10 am.
The Richie Ross Radio Show
Born out of complete boredom from lockdown The Richie Ross Radio Show, hosted by Richie Ross and Anthony Brooks is two hours of great music from the last four decades.
Richie Ross
Richie has been involved with local and community for what seems a lifetime. Even
as a young lad he had a pretend radio station at home which broadcast to literally
no-one apart from his headphones! Starlight Radio used to consist of a reel to reel
machine, a tape machine, record player and a pretend microphone taped to a
television aerial! It was inevitable at some stage it would get a bit more professional!
It all became a bit more real in 2015 when he was a co-founder of a community
station in Northumberland. After a hiatus he returned to the airwaves in 2020 with
The Richie Ross Radio Show, syndicated across multiple stations across the UK and
abroad.

Electric 80s with Gordon Cooper Every Thursday from Midday.
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, as is my second & 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.....25+ years with Sunshine Radio on the Isle of Wight & 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 6000 plus albums I collected over the decades because you'd be able to access them & more on a mobile phone that fits in the palm of your hand I'd have never have
