High Voltage Rock 'N' Roll: The Movers And Shakers In The Australian Rock Industry by Christie Eliezer
3.0
The interviews and profiles in this book are probably not the hardest thing in the world for Eliezer to have put together; he's written on the Australian music industry (in the 'industry' vein) for a number of years.
More thumbnail sketch than in-depth portrait, there's enough tidbits of interest salted through the work to keep the attention of the reader for the duration.
Shane Simpson's profile seems a little short compared to some of the others in the book, and it's a worry that some of the references are sourced from "unknown". More rigid editing would have worked, too.
If you've an interest in the Australian music scene, this is a worthwhile - though not essential read.
