Never had any interest in ILR. My local station Radio Clyde started in December 1973 and with one or two exceptions sounded like a cross between the BBC and Hospital Radio. I been lucky to enjoy real music radio from the pirates

There was a beacon of hope in January 1975 when Radio Forth appeared and were trying to do something akin to music radio. Tony Allan even appeared! However, it wasn’t long before it all fell apart and Forth sounded like Clyde!

I shed no tears for the disappearance of any of these stations from
the AM band.
