RADIO LUXEMBOURG WITH KID JENSON TONY PRINCE ROB JONES
KID In 1976 he joined the BBC's pop network, Radio 1, initially hosting a Saturday morning show from 10 am to midday, but sitting in for many other DJs, and eventually graduating to a weekday late afternoon/early evening show in the spring of 1978 from 4:30 to 7:00 pm. He kept his profile high through regular appearances presenting Top of the Pops, and championed many acts who went on to achieve huge commercial success.
After his 29 May 1980 radio show, Jensen left the BBC to work for the Turner Broadcasting System WTBS cable superstation in Atlanta, Georgia, where he was host of the 10:00 pm nightly news.[4][1] On 12 October 1981, Jensen returned to BBC Radio 1 with a new weekday evening show from 8 – 10 pm.[5] The show was later extended to run from 7 – 10 pm. Soon afterwards he dropped the "Kid" name, although he would still be popularly known by it for many years to come.
