If your interest is sparked then you should go here to download a fantastic podcast of  Greg Wadley previewing this release with interviews described on the SPILL site as :
The second volume of this history of Australian experimental music is a double-cd covering the years 1974 to 1983 and was launched at Iwaki Auditorium on Saturday 27th November. I discussed the compilation, the series, the launch, and the history of experimental music with series producer Clinton Green and Sam Dunscombe from Golden Fur, who as part of the launch are reinterpreting the 1970s tape-recorder opera 'Atom Bomb'. 
 A different line up to the one described in the podcast but the concert and the 90minute podcast are well worth checking out. The other 9 "Two to the Valley" podcasts are worth grabbing too - originally  3CR community radio broadcasts.
Clinton Green has a plethora of free downloads on his site - Shame File Music .
Worth checking out in particular is the old NMA tapes section. If you go to the shamefile music page you can download these for free or arrange cd-r copies for $10.
