This book follows Australian musician Kim Salmon, from bands The Scientists, Surrealists and Beasts of Bourbon, from childhood in Perth through his many bands, albums, tours, family upheavals, triumphs, disappointments and examines the characters of the music business he collaborates with along the way. The book explores the forces that shaped his style to create an idiosyncratically Australian sound that went on to spark a worldwide music ncultural movement-Grunge. It's a tribute to the life-long pursuit of artistic mastery, and celebration of the growing international recognition, well overdue for this unique Australian artist.
