| The Internet Radio Ship |
|
Welcome aboard the internet radio ship. Here at Offshore Music Radio (OMR) we love to play the music that was played by the offshore radio stations that populated the coast of the UK and Europe in the 60s, 70s and 80s. More than that, we just love music of that era so you don’t need to have been an offshore radio fan to enjoy listening to OMR. If you enjoyed the programmes from the pirate radio ships such as Radios Caroline, London, 270, City, Scotland, Nordsee, Veronica, Laser 558 and Atlantis etc, then you will enjoy listening to our station. |
