Fraternity : Australian Pub Rock Pioneers
Fraternity/Bon Scott - Book - by Victor Marshall
(2022)
With
outstanding live performances, original material and Bon Scott (later
with AC/DC) as lead vocalist, it is no wonder that Fraternity rocked the
Australian music scene in the early 1970s. Each band member was a
sought-after experienced performer. Fraternity gained opening spots with
acts such as Deep Purple, Manfred Mann and Black Sabbath.
Their
complex musical arrangements and originality influenced some of
Australia's greatest musicians such as later band members Jimmy Barnes
(Cold Chisel) and John Swan. For the first time in 50 years the band's
story is told in their own words and this significant lost chapter in
Australian music history is revealed.
