The Rough Guide to Australian Aboriginal Music is a compilation album originally released in 1999.

[2] Duncan Baker coordinated the project, while Marcus Breen, a professor specializing in Australian music at Bond University, Queensland, wrote the liner notes.

[3][4] Phil Stanton, co-founder of the World Music Network produced the album.

[2] The instrument was also a topic of Josef Woodard's JazzTimes review, where he called it fodder for "latter-day mixologists in search of easy exotica".

Its use in "the real thing" on this album, according to Woodard, was thus "fascinating", "important", and a potentially "spiritually transforming experience".
