Why Pirate Radio??: In the mid 1960's -- The BBC was the main source of Radio in the United Kingdom. Though an excellent source -- and a very well run organization. They lacked greatly coverage of Pop music at the time. The younger set wanted to hear Pop music and there was a viable market for pop commercial radio, but was not allowed at the time inside Great Britain. So, offshore stations popped up like Radio Caroline and The Big L - Radio London. And these 'radio station' ships with there floating studios would sail into International waters just off the coast of the UK and play the Pop Music of the time and were very popular and relied on commercials for income.
