Radio Caroline Socks
Description: Radio Caroline was a British radio station founded in 1964 initially to circumvent the record companies' control of popular music broadcasting in the United Kingdom and the BBC's radio broadcasting monopoly. Unlicensed by any government for most of its early life, it was a pirate radio station that never became illegal as such due to operating outside any national jurisdiction, although after the Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967, it became illegal for a British subject to associate with it. The MV Ross Revenge is the legendary former pirate radio ship and home to Radio Caroline.
