In 1963 a few deal-making West Texas investors looked across the Atlantic and saw an opportunity to provide millions of U.K. radio listeners the new music they wanted. Learn the real story of how a car dealer and a bunch of oilmen created the most successful and longest-lived of these pirate radio ships in this panel discussion featuring clips and stories. Anyone who remembers the great Top 40 stations of the 1960s will love this class.
