Jonathan King once claimed that he had 20 records in the Top 30 under 20 different aliases. In the 1980s, fed-up with the pop world, he moved into the media, devising the TV show Entertainment USA, which he presented on BBC2, and the teen music programme No Limits.
He also dabbled in writing, with his novel, Bible Two, and as a controversial pop columnist for The Sun. But he was dropped as a radio DJ by Talk Radio after his show proved to be a ratings flop.
The talkative music industry maestro once dubbed pop success Robbie Williams "talentless". In 1995, King took it upon himself to make the year's British entry to The Eurovision Song Contest more credible than previous entries, with Dublin band Love City Groove.
His band and pop act discovery successes have included Genesis, Peter Gabriel, The Bay City Rollers and 10cc. King was born in Godalming, Surrey and educated at top public school Charterhouse.
