Stories from Australian Rock and Roll.
This is a lively journey through the rise of Australian popular music from Johnny O'Keefe and the sartorial splendours of the early rockers to dance music, raves, and ecstasy via tribal beach battles, sharpies, the rip-roaring days of pub rock, 'Countdown' and 'Neighbours'. James Cockington highlights some of the fads and cults that have grown around different musical styles to create an entertaining and fascinating travel-log of the past 50 years. Anyone who has ever been a fan will see something of their experience here, and most likely the cringe-making bits.
