‘Twiggy’ Day – ‘your thinner record spinner’ was the slim ‘60s pirate who, after dramatic days at sea on the offshore stations, ended up being voted one of the UK’s top disc jockeys.

He returned, via Radio Luxembourg, to be the first voice on Piccadilly Radio in Manchester; and has since been heard on stations around the World.
