Produktbeschreibung
It was country music that first gave Aboriginal Australians a voice in modern Australia. Country has always offered a vehicle for the dispossessed to tell their stories, and Aboriginal country music has a rich history, from the great pioneer Jimmy Little through Vic Simms, Harry and Wilga Williams, Bobby McLeod, Bob Randall and Isaac YaMma to Roger Knox and Kev Carmody, Archie Roach and Ruby Hunter. These pivotal figures and more are vividly captured in Clinton Walker's history. Hailed on publication as "an act of restitution" (Rhythms), a work that "traces new pathways into the songlines of a hidden and resonant Australian musical history" (The Age), Buried Country draws on the author's extensive research and in-person interviews. This new 3rd edition, a slightly expanded version of the 2014 updated 2nd edition, is illustrated with many rare photographs and memorabilia, and includes a full discography.

Autorenporträt
Clinton Walker is a Sydney-based writer the Sun-Herald has called 'our best chronicler of Australian grass-roots culture.' Born in rural Victoria in 1957, he published his own fanzines in the late '70s and established a colourful reputation in the '80s freelancing for newspapers and magazines such as RAM, Rolling Stone, Roadrunner, The Age, Stiletto, and The Bulletin. He has since published ten books, worked extensively for television, for example as co-writer and principal interviewer on ABC-TV's hit 2001 Oz-rockumentary series Long Way to the Top, and compiled and annotated a score of anthology CDs. www.clintonwalker.com.au
