Radio, Drugs, Rock-n-Roll

Radio Rocks was so great when it first appeared — pure music, no shows or ads. Just music. 24 hours a day of proper rock. Can you imagine?

But little by little ads started showing up — taxi companies at first, then more and more, and now it’s simply impossible to listen to: wall-to-wall vodka, hangover cures, and other needs of the average rocker. That got me thinking about the alternative Radio Rocks — the original one, from before it went nationwide and bought a local FM frequency. It now calls itself “Radio Klassik” and broadcasts only on the internet at http://hosting.express.net.ua:13000/listen.pls I only found that address buried in the settings of an old radio-player app; internet searches turned up nothing. And the quality leaves something to be desired — mono and quiet at that. Here’s hoping that’s temporary.
