Acknowledgements

This searchable archive draws on the discography compiled by Graham McDonald, who documented hundreds of recorded versions of Waltzing Matilda over many years. We are grateful for his willingness to share that research.

Where a catalogue record exists, each entry links to the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia (NFSA) — whose public database makes these recordings discoverable. The NFSA holds Australia’s national collection of sound recordings; this site does not host audio.
