Gary Jackson
Radio Presenter

Gary Jackson is a prominent British radio presenter, syndicator, and DJ whose broadcasting career mirrors that of Geoff Dorsett. He specializes in nostalgia-driven music formats.

Starting as a mobile club DJ during the height of the Saturday Night Fever disco era, Jackson transitioned into hospital radio during the early 1990s. He eventually moved into terrestrial FM and community radio, establishing a massive footprint through syndicated shows. Today, his weekly broadcasts are syndicated globally, airing on stations stretching from Europe and the UK to San Francisco and Tasmania.

 

 

 

 

My Generation is on every Wednesday from 1am till 3am with Gary Jackson

About The Show

My Generation is Gary Jackson's flagship, multi-award-nominated radio programme passionately dedicated to the golden pop and beat music era of the 1960s. Originally launched in 1996, it holds historical significance as the first-ever online 1960s radio show in the UK.

The show is uniquely delivered in two distinct formats every week: a syndicated pre-recorded version broadcasted by FM, DAB, and satellite affiliate stations globally, and a completely different interactive live show broadcasted every Friday night from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM UK time. Fans can tune in directly via the Gary Jackson Mixcloud Live Stream.
