National music writer, musician and ABC regional radio broadcaster Tony Hillier has returned to the airwaves of Cairns FM89.1 – a station he once managed – to produce/present a new weekly program. “I initiated “Planet Jazz” to combine my favourite genres”, says Hillier, pointing out that since the genre’s early days, jazz players have coloured their musical canvasses from a global palette. “With the program, which features new releases each week along with classic blasts from the past, I endeavour to demonstrate that jazz is a broad and eclectic church. ‘Planet Jazz’ also features the only definitive gig guide to Cairns and environs”.

So much of what gets recorded never gets heard on commercial radio, but this program atones for this for a couple of hours every weeks. Unplayed B sides - often where the artist really lets themselves loose with something a bit risky in the marketplace as an a side - overlooked album tracks, songs that were hits but have been lost in the mists of time, and songs that never were hits at all - there's millions of them out there and every week I spotlight a few that have not had their due. Just as long as I think that they will engage the listener on the first hearing of songs that have not been played to death, but are played only on Off the Beaten Tracks.

So much going on the in the world, both home and abroad, and making sense out of it all is a challenge! This is the program where i - Dr Brian - provide my individual and individualistic viewpoint on the latest events, trying to put them into the broader picture. I have ruffled feathers many a time, which in some ways is the idea. I hope that I inform, though at times I may infuriate, but you will always know Where I Stand.
