Originally released as 'The boat that rocked' in the UK,It is based on the true story of Radio Caroline followed by several other offshore Pirate Radio ships that dotted off the coast of actually several Western European Countries.
In the mid 60's the BBC in the UK only contributed an hour a week to
Pop music at the time. And caused quite a musical void to the younger listeners in the UK [more]
