Growing up in England, in the 60's, the radio stations for youngsters was awful!! We had the BBC Home Service, amd if we were really luck, on a Saturday they just might play some 'pop' music. Or as my father called it, 'rubish' Bless him I discovered Radio Luxembourg when I was about 12 years old, my parents would get so mad when they caught me listening, because I was supposed to be doing homework. The problem with radio luxembourg was that in England, it did not come on until 8m, the programmes were 15 minutes long, and there was advertising!! Unheard of in England at that time.
