My inauguration into pop music. In my early teenage years listening on a 9 volt portable transistor radio in Cardiff. What memories, radio Caroline, London, city, England plus one or two unnamed stations and then later on radio Holland. These people were inspirational in introducing soul, motown and other genres of music unheard of in Britain. What days!!!

These ships and their crews should be inducted in the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. They inspired a generation while risking their very lives!

Those boys began a revolution! Too bad radio is a former shadow of it's creative self. If left in the hands of men like the Caroline staff...perhaps radio's fate would be different! Brave..passionate pirates! Long may they live!

What a fantastic history lesson. Jawdropping narration and riveting details. I can remember when the British tried to pass legislation making it illegal to support the ship financially by advertising/sponsoring programming on Radio Caroline.

Or double u double u double u dot radiocaroline dot co dot uk. It's the original Radio Caroline, in operation since 1964. I listen to it every day at work.

It started broadcasting on 199 meters in the Medium wave during the Easter bank Holiday of 1964 - "Caroline on 199, your all day music station". This encouraged alot of radio manufacturers to include Caroline on "band spread". dials on their sets to attract teenagers. After tens of thousands had been made, Caroline changed its frequency to 259 mtrs in the Medium wave! Not sure why they did that. 259 mtrs was just along the dial from Radio London which broadcast on 266 mtrs. What fab stations!!
