EP 1: Invicta - “Soul Over London”

The story of the UK's first soul music pirate station.

Just as stations like Radio Caroline and Radio Jackie helped drive the rise of pop music culture, Radio Invicta supported the burgeoning soul music movement. In this episode, we hear about the radio landscape that Invicta launched into. We hear from presenter and DJ Gilles Peterson, who began his radio career as a teenager on Invicta; broadcaster Jez Nelson, who listened as a fan before launching his own career on Horizon; and DJ and presenter Tony Monson.
