Vernon Army Cadet Summer Training Centre

The music on the Jukebox

This may seem a little unusual, but when you think about it makes sense... as a teenager, cadet or otherwise, and for that matter as adults, music is an inescapable part of one's life. It's no different at camp, we all heard music whether we were in the barracks, the canteen or at the Much Music dance party at F20. Some of us can remember CJIB or CKAL in the 1970s, 80s and 90s before the domination of FM radio. MP3s and 45's, it all the same, so here's a chance to saunter down memory lane to 1995 or 1955. Is the music the same between every camp? More than likely not, especially before MTV, MuchMusic and the internet. What parameters are there to the songs on the following pages? Simple, you, tell us what you remember being played in the canteen or barracks. We look forward to your input and feedback. No doubt, there's a few guilty pleasures amongst the songs.
