HE was the breakfast DJ on Plymouth Sound radio, playing all the hits for you from the local studio. Now Peter Greig is saying farewell to the incredible collection of CDs he used for his broadcasts and live club sets over the decades, and he is donating them to benefit St Luke's Hospice Plymouth.
The bright good morning voice of the city for more than 20 years, from 1975 through to the 1990s, is now letting go to 2,000 albums, featuring artists and tunes from the Swinging Sixties onwards.
"There are some of my absolute favourites in there, like Fleetwood Mac, and it's quite a wrench to part with them, but I've decided they all have to go," said Peter, 77, who is hoping they will be of interest to collectors, either as a complete set or individually, and raise a decent amount for the charity.
"The discs are all like new, not dusty or scratched - they look like they've just come out of the shop. It's eclectic musical collection, mostly artists people will know, including all-time classics like The Beatles, the Rolling Stones and The Who, but some rare ones too."
