Rolling Stone Australia

ROLLING STONE AUSTRALIA
 
 
Rolling Stone Australia  is the Australian edition of the United States’ Rolling Stone magazine devoted to music, politics, and popular culture, published monthly.  The Australian version of Rolling Stone was initially published in 1970 as a supplement in Revolution magazine published by Monash University student Phillip Frazer.  It was launched as a fully fledged magazine in 1972 by Frazer and is the longest surviving international edition of Rolling Stone.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 
Hunters & Collectors, Ghost Nation – I liked this 1989 album so much (their sixth) that I have picked up another couple of albums by this fine Australian band that came along when movies and rock bands alike from Australia were finding audiences around the world.  Hunters & Collectors were opening for Midnight Oil at one point but were struggling to find success in this country.  Allmusic was not impressed, giving the album only 2 stars; but Australian music journalist Ian McFarlane called Ghost Nation “perhaps the band’s finest album to date”, and Rolling Stone Australia named them Australian Band of the Year in 1990.
