I sometimes play tracks from modern bands who are recording some good music which I feel reflects the sound of the 60's and 70's. eg: The Lava Province, Sheryl Paige, Madhouse, St. Valentine's Porno Bar, Polygenes, Roz Vitalis, Sonic Theater, Ray Bonneville, Gothic Chicken and The Green Ray.

What We Are All About.

The Rock Doctor aims to prescribe the music that captures the essence of the 60’s and 70’s atmosphere. Just think of the Psychedelic “summer of love”, black & white TV, Woodstock, "the hippie movement", Watergate, Colour TV, lava lamps, big hair, fashion and most of all the fantastic and rich spectrum of music making itself heard on pirate radio stations around the world back then.

Do these images stir your memory? If they do, give yourself a real nostalgic treat, and enjoy the Rock Doctor’s play list now.

There are no DJ's on The Rock Doctor, continually talking a load of nonsense all day long, just great rock music from the 60's & 70's. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
