Johnny Moran began his career on Australian radio before joining Radio Luxembourg in 1964. He worked there for two years until moving to the UK in 1966. While on Radio Luxembourg, he was noticed by Melody Maker's The Raver column, which in 1964 dubbed him (perhaps because of his Australian origins) "the second Alan Freeman" .
