Biography,Born in Bendigo, Victoria, Walker dropped out of art school in Brisbane in the late 70s to start a punk fanzine with the late Andrew McMillan and to write for student newspapers. In 1978 he moved to Melbourne where he worked on-air for 3RRR, and with Bruce Milne on the fanzine Pulp, and wrote for the fledgling Roadrunner magazine. Moving on to Sydney, where he still lives, he commenced a career as a freelance journalist. Over the next fifteen years he wrote for a wide variety of magazines and newspapers, including longstanding associations with both RAM and Australian Rolling Stone, he also wrote extensively for Stiletto, The Bulletin, the Age, New Woman, Playboy, Inside Sport, the Edge and Juice.Clinton WalkerHe published his first book, Inner City Sound, in 1981. It documented the emergence of independent Australian punk/post-punk music, and became itself one of the icons of the movement. A revised and expanded edition was published in 2005, at the same time as a CD anthology with the same title.In 1982/83, he lived in London, where he worked at the legendary Record & Tape Exchange and served as a stringer for Bruce Milnes pioneering cassette-zine Fast Forward. Returning to Australia, by 1984 he was back on the freelance treadmill, had published his second book (The Next Thing) and got a job cleaning toilets at Pancakes on the Rocks.Walkers third book, Highway to Hell: The Life and Times of AC/DC Legend Bon Scott (1994) was widely acclaimed and a best seller in Australia. It has since been translated into French, Spanish, Italian, Bulgarian, and Finnish. He then published Stranded: The Secret History of Australian Independent Music 1977-1991 (1996) and Football Life, a personal history of minor league Australian Rules culture (he was himself a promising junior player).His sixth book, Buried Country, a history of Aboriginal country music, was published in 2000 and spawned a documentary film and soundtrack CD with the same title. It was hailed as a pioneering and monumental work of music historiography, and still stands as the closest thing Australias ever produced to the efforts of a Harry Smith or Peter Guralnick. A new updated edition of the book was released in 2015 along with a rebooted version of the CD called Buried Country 1.5, and as a result of their even greater success than the first time around, a touring live stageshow adaptation premiered in 2016 and continues to play on the festival circuit.Walker has also worked at ABC Television on the two documentary series, Long Way to the Top and Love is in the Air, as well as co-hosting the live music program Studio 22 and hosting the short-lived Fly-TV show for record collectors, Rare Grooves. He has contributed to many literary anthologies, from the 1995 best-seller Men-Love-Sex to the 2012 collection of journal Meanjins greatest hits, he has also produced and/or annotated a long list of CD anthologies, and appeared as a talking head in countless other rockumentaries.In 2005, his seventh book, Golden Miles: Sex, Speed and the Australian Muscle Car, was published. Once again it was widely praised for its innovation, irreverent humour and beautiful design/presentation, and when its original publisher, Lothian, went bust, it was re-released, in 2009, by Wakefield Press, in an expanded, updated edition.In 2012, he published History is Made at Night, a polemic on the endangered Australian live music circuit. In 2013 he published his ninth book, The Wizard of Oz, about the ill-starred Australian speed ace from the 1920s, Norman Wizard Smith, as well as co-producing the CD Silver Roads, an anthology of Australian country-rock from the 1970s.Walker has also worked as a cook, graphic artist, a DJ and a bookseller – he even did some modelling in the 80s, on fashion shoots for magazines like Stiletto and Follow Me – and he was a member of the country-grunge band the Killer Sheep, who in 1987 released the single Wild Down Home on Au-Go-Go Records. An outspoken, colourful character, he has himself often appeared in other works, from Peter Lawrances teen crime novel Family Affair to walking through numerous music videos, to making a cameo in John Birminghams book He Died with a Felafel in His Hand to getting namechecked in the Go-Betweens song Darlinghurst Nights.He lives in Sydneys inner west with his wife and two children Lewanna and Earl, and is currently working on a PhD at Macquarie University, serving as an honorary research fellow at the Thesis Eleven Centre for Cultural Sociology, completing his tenth book – and first graphic history – on black women in Australian music, collaborating with the Cambodian Space Project on the documentary film They Came from Somewhere Else, and working on the Buried Country roadshow.
