Cocktail Nation 196-Koop Koopers Cocktail Nation
The Interviews
Well after a year of working on my book it has finally been released. Koop Koopers Cocktail Nation the Interviews is out on amazon right now priced at just 9.99 just search in the amazon store by punching in cocktail nation and the book is available as a kindle download….whilst it took a long time and a lot of work it’s a pleasure to have it done and dusted and it’s cool to have some literature out there that contributes to the lounge and exotica story. So this week I thought I would play all the artists that are involved in the book. Randy Wong from Waitiki 7 joins us on the show to talk about a special gig in December in Idaho plus in Swank advice we talk about creating a good impression with your smell!
