What Are You Listening To?

[CRAZY-HORSE]

JIMMY BARNES "rage and ruin" cd, 2010:

solo career stats:
studio albums..............15
singles........................63

this album....................#3 AU...#20 NZ
singles:
"before the Devil knows youre dead"....no chart action
"God or money"................................no chart action
"Largs Pier Hotel"..............................no chart action

Jimmy's thirteenth studio album....
passes the grade for me, but barely....
the least likeable one of his I own....
back to his bluesy rock/pub rock roots on this one...
album came about when he was going over his own writings of overcoming
his alcohol abuse decades earlier and he decided to write an album based on those feelings
he had at the time, thus its a very dark depressing album to listen to....
only reached #3 on our charts in Australia, making it the second worst charting album of his
long and illustrious career, also became one of only a rare few that didn't achieve platinum
status here, I guess im not the only one who thought it was depressing and depressive in nature...
all three singles also failed to chart here....
im surprised it didn't make him take up the booze again....LOL!
all up, very-very average by his standards....

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

worst track: time can change
best track: before the Devil knows youre dead
