I recently saw the new Australian horror comedy 100 Bloody Yards and while the film was pretty good, what really struck me was the soundtrack, which is full of great vintage Aussie Country and Novelty tunes. So I figured, why not seek out a few more? I dove into the world of classic Oz Country – a journey that was assisted in no small part by youtube user and Australian music archivist theflipsidekid. Enjoy!
