JIMMY BARNES
'RIDE THE NIGHT AWAY'

cd details

Recorded live at the Shepherd's Bush Empire, London, 2002, this is a storming 15 track set performed in front of a sold out crowd. This double CD is augmented by extra material from several other shows on Barnes' 2002 European tour plus bonus tracks from some of his harder to find solo live releases. The CD was recorded on 24 track and has been mixed to bring out the full power of the vocals as well as Barnes' hand picked band. The show has never been issued on CD before in Europe. The disc comes in a standard slimline jewel case format with an attractive eight page colour booklet with information, and colour photographs of Barnes and co. in action.

Vocalist Jimmy Barnes was born in Scotland, his family emigrating to Australia when Barnes was four. Older brother John's interest in music led to Jimmy becoming lead singer of Cold Chisel, one of Australia's most popular bands of the 70s and 80s. When the band split after 12 years (they reformed briefly in 1996), Barnes launched a solo career, recording with Little Feat and Journey.

Jimmy Barnes recorded eight albums in nine years. He has recently made his first feature film, starring as crime boss Terence Fink in Foolproof, and cut a new soon to be released studio album with Deep Purple¹s Steve Morse and Don Airey.
