Paperback. Condition: VG. Text free of underlining, writing and highlighting. Very nice clean copy. Swagmen and squatters, shearers and drovers, convicts and coppers - these are the folk who built Australia, and here is their story, told in song. Over a hundred songs, some very familiar, some less well known, offer a rare key to the treasure chest of our past. There are traditional songs composed by disgruntled bush workers, by optimistic gold-seekers, by the men and women who tramped the old bush tracks during the lean times of the 1890s and 1930s; there are songs from the coalfields of the south and from the canefields of the north; songs about love, about leisure, about hope for the future. These are the songs that made Australia and, above all, they're meant to be sung. Thus they are presented here with both words and music, to enable today's Australians to enjoy to the full these legacies from our pioneering past. Warren Fahey is a musical "jack of all trades" - a collector and singer of bush songs; a "long-in-the-tooth" broadcaster and scriptwriter for the ABC; a music publisher; and a music businessman operating both the Folkways retail outlet and the ever-cheeky Larrikin Record label. Born and bred in Sydney, his performing and song-collecting projects have sent him rambling through most of Australia's outback. "You know, these old songs smack of the real Australia. After a couple of verses you can almost smell the gum-leaves and hear the billy boiling - fair dinkum!" Jack Pobar, swagman 238 pages.
