One of his most popular and enduring compositions is the theme to the "Aktuelles Sportstudio", a football programme on German TV. It's called "Up To Date" and was composed by Greger in 1963.

I personally see Greger as one of the German jazz greats alongside James Last, Bert Kaempfert (both also internationally known), Horst Jankowski, Erwin Lehn, Kurt Edelhagen, Klaus Doldinger.

His version of Aquarius is a schlager funk fave.
