hello and welcome...

I’m a Sydney-based Australian writer who since the late 70s has built up a long list across (ten) books, television, journalism, CD productions, all sorts of stuff, mainly on local music, popular culture and social history. This old-skool site is a guide through that stuff – a combination storefront/archive/laboratory, with a NEWS feed as close as I get to despotic social media. The archival BACKPAGES and RE-MIXED sections amount to a veritable database going even deeper into (mainly Australian) music (history). I’m too old to be an enfant terrible, but with the way I still seem to be able to court controversy, I must be some sort of loose cannon! Have a look around, enjoy; link further to the standalone BURIED COUNTRY site too…

News 

APRIL 2021: After a few years in exile, I am now getting back in the ring again. Later this year, GoldenTone will publish my eleventh major work, Suburban Songbook: Writing Hits in post-war/pre-Countdown Australia. Meantime, the Visible Spectrum has published a new expanded edition of my 1996 book Stranded, which seems to be getting out of the gate quite nicely. For more details go to the NEWS feed here.
