The Royal Ruler - Tony Prince, I loved it, I still remember the day Elvis died and Tony played his records all day, he had to talk a couple of girls out of topping themselves too, on air.
Did you see the movie "the Boat that Rocked" that was sort of based on the pirate radio ships and government response to them?
