Keith Hampshire

Keith Hampshire (born November 23, 1945) is a British-born Canadian popular singer of the 1970s, famous in Canada for three top ten hits and the successful television show "Music Machine". He was not as successful in the United States, where his highest single only reached number 51 [Gary Lessard-album notes The Best of Keith Hampshire 2005 Universal Music Inc] .

Between July 1966 and mid-August 1967, he was a DJ for Radio Caroline South on 259 - 1.186 kHz AM. His show was called "Keefers Commotions", and later "Keefers Uprising".

In 1983, Hampshire released a song entitled "OK Blue Jays", which became an anthem for the Toronto Blue Jays Major League Baseball team. Blue Jays fans sing it during the seventh-inning stretch of home games.

On June 18, 2005 Hampshire was hired by Darren Stevens to host a 60's-70's based oldies radio show on CHAY-FM in Barrie, Ontario.
