                                      Radio Music Programming

Throughout the 1980s and early '90s I worked, on and off, as a music programmer at various radio stations. This included a  stint as Music Director at Melbourne's 3DB where I was brought in to put together a new playlist. I was also producing their Sunday afternoon program for a while. I used to run off airchecks (tapes) of my music logs as they went to air. Unfortunately, many have now been lost. However, a few have survived:

I was also a programmer for several years at 3AK Melbourne. However, no airchecks or logs survive from that period 

... and, finally, yours truly at the piano ....dressed to the nines for the occasion ! Oh well, never expected to have my own You Tube channel...
