Ricky Wilde

Ricki Wilde (often spelled Ricky Wilde) (born 6 November 1961) is a British songwriter, musician, record producer and brother of singer Kim Wilde, and son of the singer and actor, Marty Wilde. At the age of eleven, Wilde was signed by record producer Jonathan King to King's UK record label, and released his first single in November, 1972, called "I Am An Astronaut". King became his mentor and had great faith in Wilde and groomed him for stardom as the teenybopper star of 1973. Subsequent singles were "Do It Again, a Little Bit Slower", "I Wanna Go to a Disco" and "Teen Wave".
