This r-rated collection documents nearly 600 disgustingly sexist, racist, ageist and just about every other politically incorrect 'ist' song and recitation collected in Australia. Old international favourites like The Good Ship Venus and Barnacle Bill are included, often changed in their Australian journey, plus many works created in the 19th century when the bush was a wild pioneering place where the shearers, drovers, gold diggers and other travellers assembled. Homemade entertainment was often bawdy in this male-dominated world (at one stage there were 5 men to every woman in Australia) and folklorist, Warren Fahey, has collected and provided source notes to every item. It is a staggering work and represents the end of an aural tradition.
