Background
Rock & Gol programs were centered on rock music of all times and soccer. It was well known among young people for its two lead hosts Iván Guillén and Rafa Escalada and for beaming the best music of all times. It later switched to on pr-programmed music. In 2011 the radio station was renamed to Rock FM.[citation needed]
As of 2015, El Pirata y su banda (The Pirate and His Band) on Rock FM was one of the top five morning shows on Spanish radio, according to the General Media Survey.[2]
