Clive quickly found his place as a regular presenter on Radio Thamesmead, showcasing his talent and passion for broadcasting. However, Clive's journey didn't stop there. He was soon approached by London's legendary FM pirate soul station, LWR, where he became a familiar voice on the city's pirate radio soul scene throughout the late 1980s.
