The Pirate Tapes

This blog features links to some off-air recordings of free radio stations that broadcast from all over Europe on short wave and medium wave in the 1980s and 1990s. The idea is to share some memories of that era with some classic pirate sounds.

http://piratetapes.blogspot.com/

An excellent idea and a new blog to me. I have lost all my off-air tapes from that era.
Thanks to uk dxer for the link.
