Launching in January 1975, the ABC’s 2JJ (later triple j) was the first genuine rival to commercial AM radio’s music listening stranglehold.

Opening their debut broadcast with Skyhooks’ ‘You Just Like Me ‘Cos I’m Good in Bed’ – an album track banned on commercial radio – set the tone for the new public broadcaster as rebellious, youth-oriented and committed to homegrown music.
