alt_daz Fond memories of childhood visits to London and hearing Pirate Radio being played at relatives to newsagents to fast food outlets to taxis yet those Advert Jingles got me.

Short moments of genius which this album provides.

Another slice of fantastic Scouse Liverpool influence within London with the track:

"Tasty Leather Jackets" Favorite track: Tasty Leather Jackets.

rossallenmusic This takes me back to the joys of Pirate Radio as a kid. A new, soon to be discovered world of music, parties, record shops, friends, fashions and a whole lot more. We used to listen to these stations dreaming of going out... We've done quite a bit of that since !! LWR was our first encounter with this world with Westwood and Ron Tom !!! You gotta love London and the memories it holds X
Favorite track: Roller Skating Session.
