Historia
James Dixon Barnes AO is a Scottish-Australian rock singer and songwriter. His career both as a solo performer and as the lead vocalist with the rock band Cold Chisel has made him one of the most popular and best-selling Australian music artists of all time.
Story
With nine #1 albums to his name, Jimmy Barnes is one of Australia’s greatest rock icons. But his success masked a life of hardship and abuse, where the music that once saved him from oblivion almost came back to destroy him. Before Jimmy Barnes was Jimmy Barnes, he was James Dixon Swan, a troubled kid from the mean streets of Glasgow – and the even meaner streets of North Adelaide – trying to survive against a backdrop of addiction, alcoholism, poverty and abuse. For Jimmy, escape was the only option and he found it with a band called Cold Chisel. But the rock’n’roll lifestyle has its own temptations and the scars of childhood are always waiting to take you home. Based on the bestselling memoir and directed by veteran Australian filmmaker Mark Joffe, Working Class Boy is both an inspiring story of rock and redemption told in Barnes’ own words and an unflinchingly honest reflection on fame, creativity and depression.

2012 fue un año épico para el regreso de los incondicionales australianos Cold Chisel, que realizaron una gira masiva con entradas agotadas y lanzaron su primer álbum de estudio, No Plans, en 14 años. No hay mejor manera de conmemorar y preservar este período de tiempo lanzando The Live Tapes Vol. 1: En vivo en el Pabellón Hordern. Difícil de creer que es el primer lanzamiento en vivo desde Ringside hace 10 años. Dos CD y un DVD (o BluRay) forman un paquete increíble con todos los éxitos como Flame Trees, Khe Sanh, Cheap Wine y Choir Girl, además de una muestra de material más nuevo.
