About The 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..

About The Author

Glen Humphries writes about the holy trinity – beer, music, and sport.
He is the author of Aussie Anthems, which included the song "Eagle Rock", even though he hates it. He has also written The Slab: 24 Stories of Beer in Australia, which was the national winner in the worldwide Gourmand Awards.
Glen's books on sport include Biff and Jack Gibson's Fur Coast, about the National Rugby League, and Sticky Wickets, a book full of strange cricket stories.
Glen is a reporter for the Illawarra Mercury, where he has been for three decades. During that time, he covered local councils, transport, and the Port Kembla steelworks and researched the question, "Why can't you buy mouse-flavoured cat food?". If you meet him one day, he can give you the answer.
