Kim Salmon: podcast appearances and interviews

Kim Leith Salmon, born on 24 January 1957, is an Australian rock musician and songwriter from Perth. He has been a member of various music groups, including The Scientists and Beasts of Bourbon, and has also performed with Kim Salmon and the Surrealists, Kim Salmon and the Business, and Darling Downs. Salmon is recognized for his significant contributions to the Australian rock scene, with Australian rock musicologist Ian McFarlane noting that Salmon was among the first Australians to wholeheartedly embrace the emergent punk phenomenon of the mid-to-late 1970s with The Scientists. McFarlane also described Beasts of Bourbon as masters of uncompromising gutbucket blues and hard-edged rock and roll. Salmon's influence and career achievements have been recognized through his induction into the West Australian Music Industry Association Hall of Fame in 2004 and the Music Victoria Awards Hall of Fame in 2007.
