Pirates playing Chuck

Chuck Berry (1926-2017)
If you're a fan of rock'n'roll, you no doubt heard the sad news of Chuck Berry's passing today after 90 years at full throttle.
Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Mike Hansgen (K8RAT), who notes that a number of pirate stations have been playing Chuck Berry tributes tonight; these will, no doubt, continue into tomorrow night, as well.
Mike's message prompted me to trigger a spectrum recording, as I'm currently on the road. I'll pull out a portable tonight and listen live, but it'll be nice to catch up with Chuck later as I play back my spectrum recordings. (This is why I love SDRs.)
Many thanks to the pirates who are paying tribute to the legend.
Rest in peace, Chuck. A toast to the grandfather of rock'n'roll.
