Famous quotes containing the words australian and/or rock:
“The Australian mind, I can state with authority, is easily boggled.”
—Charles Osborne (b. 1927)
“The new sound-sphere is global. It ripples at great speed across languages, ideologies, frontiers and races.... The economics of this musical esperanto is staggering. Rock and pop breed concentric worlds of fashion, setting and life-style. Popular music has brought with it sociologies of private and public manner, of group solidarity. The politics of Eden come loud.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
