    Imagine growing up in Sydney, Australia in the mid to late 70's when bands like Ac/DC, Cold Chisel, The Angels, Skyhooks, Rose Tattoo, Sherbet, Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs, Richard Clapton, and many many more were playing the pubs and clubs. And I loved every second of it

      Same with growing up in Melbourne, a teenager in the 70’s who got to see AC/DC live with the brilliant Bon Scott at least 6 or 7 times in one year 74/75. Weekends were all about getting the Gig Guide (printed of course, no internet) to see which band was playing at which pub. Every weekend was a joy to be alive and we were spoilt for choice. For me, the best time musically to be alive and in Australia. Wish I could go back and do it all again ❤❤. Lots of people rave about the Sunset Strip in LA and that’s fine, but personally I think we had it even better here! So lucky!!

    Bow river in this song is a place in Australia's Kimberly region it is a tributary of the Ord river system that runs in to Lake Argyle. The singer Ian Moss is from the Northern Territory and he is singing about leaving his work at a car factory and running up north to the place he wants to be.

    • @stephenyates3330
      @stephenyates3330 Рік тому +10

      Ian explained he wrote the song originally using Todd River as the river and picked Bow River off a map as it sounded much better. He was back in his home town of Alice Springs and was telling his parents about it when he did so. Heard it from his lips at a gig in the Pilbara recently, which I may add was incredible.

    If you think that harmonica playing was good, look up John Farnhams concert track 'Chain Reaction' it starts with a two to three minute intro (Awesome). Also John and Jimmy Barnes have been good friends for years look up a track called 'Somethings wrong with my baby' preferably a live concert version (there is about 4 different UA-cam video's) believe me you will not be disappointed! Finally I don't know what you have all been doing for the past 30 to 40 years, but here in Australia we have been rocking it!

The harmonica player has played with the band for over 40years and is only a guest player( does tours/live shows and the occasional track on albums) he's a master at his craft, call and respond that he and Mossy(guitarist) can put into a live show is awesome(usually the intro to Bow River)

    There was an entire multi-decade period in which Australian audiences were more deeply enamoured with home-made Australian rock than they were with American/Brit rock.
    Aussie pubs were the heart and soul of the local music industry, and the best of them were packed with 'punters' every single week. There are so many bands and solo performers in the glory days of this period and I would bet you would know a lot of them: Cold Chisel, Little River Band, ACDC, The Angels, Radiators, Divinyls, and dozens of others. Being a teenagers during this period was several shades of awesome.

    Cold Chisel had some success with the album East in the USA (Top 50 I think) but producers then wanted them to alter their style to suit American taste. They of course told them to get stuffed and then made their most Australian album ever - Circus Animals. The song You got Nothing I want is about the American music industry. And Bow River is on that album.

    Aussie music in the 60 and 70s was done the hard way. Playing pubs, counry halls, clubs... gritty sweaty dirty... up close and very personal. Every dollar was hard earned and drunk even harder. Chisel was was one of many in bands from blues to country, jazz to heavy metal and all in-between. The big money from Europe and the States gave them the promotion and the nsme, but Aussie music from that era is the best because it came from the sheds, pubs and was accessible to everyone. Just look at chisel contemporaries like the oils, sunnyboys, Aussie crawl, Billy thorpe

    Check out "Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again : The Angels Live Melbourne 1988" Audience interaction with a song that the band did not like but they couldn't stop. It grew out of control so the band decided to go with it. The song came is out in 1976 when swearing in public would get you in trouble with the law. 12 years later it was nearly compulsory to know how to sing this song."The audience call back was never part of the song" Fun fact record produced by AC/DC big brother George Young.

    I couldn’t be more proud to be an Aussie than I am at this moment. Bow River by Cold Chisel is the best ever live band song played.

  • @Mrdayz
    @Mrdayz 2 місяці тому +1

    Bow River is probably Cold Chisel's greatest song. The magic is in the build of tension. It starts with Mossy's beautiful, clean voice. "Listen out to the wind, babe" As the momentum grows, we start to hear Barnsey, adding harmonies here and there. When the whole fire is blazing, Barnesy cuts loose, "One week two weeks, maybe even more, pissed all my money up against the damn wall". Spine chilling. He deserves a place at the table of rock's greatest vocalists.

    Cold Chisel and ACDC are The classic Aussie pub rock band and they're still massive in Australia, Chisel rocked hard, Played Hard and Indulged Hard Jimmy Barnes (the guy in the black T-Shirt singing) famously admitted he used to do 10 grams of Cocaine, six to eight ecstasy and three bottle of Vodka a day, they fortunately cleaned up their act. These guy play working man rock their songs were about the working man like Bow River a song about working all week and heading out on the weekend. They also produced one of the three great Aussie songs about war Khe Sanh a song about a man coming back from Vietnam a hard rock classic. pick just about any of their music and you will get a mind blowing mix of rock and blue. You need to check out more of their stuff

There are so many great Cold Chisel songs to react to. Jimmy Barnes also sings with John Farnham that you learnt about recently.

    Welcome to Aussie pub rock cold chisel and AcDc cut their teeth in Australian pubs back in the 70s a lot of time on the same bill. Back then pubs where known by most drunk puntters as beer barns or some of the rougher pubs as blood houses for the drunken bar fights it took a powerful band to make the drinkers to stop and get into the band and that's why Aussie bands and some New Zealand bands would rock your sox off. Listen to some midnight oil or the angels maybe a little crowed house or basically anything from Australia in the 1970/80s one of the first great Aussie bands from that era was called chain very blues based but the grand daddy of them all was Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs search out as many Aussie and New Zealand bands as you can find and you'll discover we punched well above our weight as far as good rock went. Enjoy and maybe think about coming to Australia even if it's just to hear the bands.

    The lead guitarist and lead singer in this song is Ian Moss and the other singer is Jimmy Barnes. There are so many great song's from Cold Chisel for you to drool over and then you have a huge catalog from Jimmy Barnes's solo career which started in the 80,s and is still going today. Jimmy recently released two song's just after his 66th birthday Soothe Me with Sam Moore and Do you love me with Josh Teskey. He also just toured Australia and New Zealand performing his 30th anniversary of his Soul Deap album which is his highest selling album.

  • @scrotrot1595
    @scrotrot1595 Рік тому +4

    This is Mossy's finest work. I've seen this song worked so many ways live. The Chisel boys going flat out, Mossy doing a slow solo acoustic or Mossy and his touring band playing it.
    I saw the boys here in Canberra right at the end of the bushfires a couple of years back. Hot night in the Capital but the old farts rocked hard.
    Apart from the sad passing of Steve Prestwich, they have remained the same line up.
    Don Walker is the highest ranking musician within the band, he got it started, penned so many songs and melodies, legend.

    You mention AC/DC, well those two bands hit the Australian rock scene in the same year, they both went on to mega sucess though AC/DC went global while Chisel toured America and didn't like being away from home so they came back. They are both huge in Australia, but they drifted into solo careers. Jimmy Barnes the second singer in this clip went on to have the ten top selling albums in Australian history. While Ian Moss the guitarist and first singer is regarded as one of the best guitarists in the world with people like Joe Walsh comparing him to Eric Clapton. they are Australian icons and have been since about 1976.

    Hey guys, Chris Wilson (R.I.P.) was the greatest harmonica player in Australia. Absolute legend. Passed a few years ago, but the things he could do with a harp was legendary. He played with John Popper (Blues Traveller) live and jamming with 2 harmonicas simultaneously was unbelievable. Oh, and as harmonica player myself, he plays through a green bullet.

    • @raucousreg9064

      Good but I would rate Jim Conway ahead of him. Australia is blessed with a phenomenal number of world class musicians most of whom, it seems to me, grew up in the "golden age" of pub rock and had a chance to learn / hone their craft.
