23/06/2024 Duration: 05minThe curtain lifted, and on September 12, 2005, Radio Luxembourg made a soft comeback in English at the crack of dawn. The airwaves were alive with the promise of a new era.

Bourgmeisterin Episode #30: Radio Luxembourg, Part 2 (2/3)
16/06/2024 Duration: 09minThanks to this newfound competition with pirate radios, Radio Luxembourg had to do a quick wardrobe change. Out with the pre-recorded sponsored programs, in with a more flexible vibe.
