Caroline was followed by Atlantis, London and Scotland to name a few. David Sutch aka  pop star Screaming Lord Sutch and his band the Savages, thought it would be a good idea to start their own station to promote their own records, so on 25th May 1964 the band sailed down the Thames. Once in the Thames Estuary they came across the Shivering Sands Fort. They boarded it and set up Radio Sutch. </DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F765C938-094E-4816-9766-CC8DE7181055/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
