The legendary Liverpool pioneer in the disc jockey business, Wilson was the first person ever to mix two records on British television, started out in 1975, With his primary interest being black music, Wilson's nights at the Wigan Pier covered a spectrum of black music styles. But it was in his championing of the early electro records that he became known nationally - whilst working at Wigan Pier, he was offered an ailing Wednesday night residency at Legend in Manchester but stopped for almost 20 years, between 1984 and the end of 2003, at which point started again.

But more people nowadays know him for his prowess at the editing desk. Ever since he took back up the job of rocking dance floors, audiences have been treated to Wilson's exclusive cut-ups via his laptop and reel-to-reel player, he still gets cut by the razor every so often. In 2004 he re-visited his Electro-Funk past, compiling the ‘Classic Electro Mastercuts’ album, part of the influential ‘Classic Mastercuts’ series released by Beechwood in the UK, making a few rare DJ appearances during this period to promote the album.
