Tony Prince

He also made discotheque appearances throughout Europe and the music he played had an important influence on the younger generation of people who, in certain European countries, only had access to the music by listening to him on Radio Luxembourg, broadcast on 208 Metres Medium Wave, in previous years but had no access to seeing the groups play live.

He was programme director until 1984, changing the station's format, for a time, to play predominantly disco and soul music.

[1][4] In 2002, Prince established World DJ Day, set up to raise funds for Nordoff–Robbins music therapy.

In 2016, he published a double autobiography co-written with Czech music fan Jan Šesták, The Royal Ruler & the Railway DJ.

[8][9] On 23 May 2021, United DJs ceased broadcasting after three years with Prince stating, "...we have been unable to attract enough listeners to make the station commercially viable".
