About this book
Tells the stories of Australia's best known pop and rock songs. Aussie Rock Anthems names the top 40 classic Australian songs and tells the stories behind them – many unknown. From Hunters & Collectors' 'Throw Your Arms Around Me' to INXS's 'Don't Change' and Redgum's 'I Was Only 19', author Glen Humphries unearths hidden gems and surprising back stories about the bands. It's a celebration of great Australian music that will have you reaching for old vinyl or phone apps to give some of these classics another listen. Chances are, each song is not what you had assumed..
