Clinton Walker Clinton Walker (born 1957) is an Australian writer, best known for his works on popular music but with a broader interest in social and cultural history and theory. Sydney's "Sun-Herald" has called him "our best chronicler of Australian grass-roots culture." He has always been ahead of the curve. As "Rhythms" magazine said in 2015, "Like many of Walker’s projects, "Buried Country" was at least a decade ahead of its time," and as such he is remarkable as a critic who has exerted a pro-active impact on Australian music and its development; groundbreaking books like "Inner City Sound" (1981) and "Buried Country" (2000) especially have informed and inspired successive generations of musicians. Similarly, while he found best-selling success as Bon Scott's biographer, Walker's non-music books like "Football Life" (1998) and "Golden Miles" (2005) have innovatively offered an appreciation of subjects hitherto hardly deemed worthy of serious consideration.
