We remember Ronan OβRahilly who passed away on this day in 2020 aged 79 - the visionary who made Radio Caroline possible
Back in 1964, when the airwaves felt closed and controlled, Ronan believed listeners deserved more choice, more music and more freedom. Against the odds he helped launch a station that would become a movement - broadcasting from the sea and into the hearts of millions.
Radio Caroline wasnβt just a radio station. It was a challenge to the establishment, a champion of new music and a voice for those who wanted something different. Sixty-two years later this spirit lives on because of Ronanβs determination, courage, and refusal to accept βnoβ for an answer.
We owe so much to his vision
Thank you, Ronan
Caroline continues β¦
