Down-Home, Down Under : The Aborigines' Country Music,
single work
review
(p. 8)
'It comes as quite a surprise to learn that the Aborigines, the native people of Australia, have been listening to American country music ever since Jimmie Rodgers invented it in the 1930s. Furthermore, they've been playing it, forsaking traditional didgeridoos and gum leaves for acoustic guitars, pedal steel guitars and banjos.' (Introduction)
