Welcome to great Aussie pub music and Cold Chisel and Jimmy Barnes music lives on forever that you can listen to over and over....yes Jimmy Barnes is a LEGEND... much love from Perth Western Australia ❤❤
This was the Star hotel riots in Newcastle NSW Australia about 2 hours drive north of Sydney in September 1979 several thousand rioted over the closure of the popular pub i was 17 at the time now i gave away how old iam. Footnote ,this song was written by Cold Chisel Drummer Steve Prestwich who died in 2011 RIP . After the Cold Chisel break up in December 1983 Jimmy and Ian had solo hits This is about the mid 80's Ian Moss Tuckers Daughter ua-cam.com/video/gyBscA3UBzY/v-deo.htmlsi=lqd1ud1jwehC5sHV
The best live rendition is Cold Chisel when the war is over live Ringside 2003. Ringside is Cold Chisels reunion concert so it is a proper live performance and is far superior to this one.
Cold Chisel - Bow River (2003) m.ua-cam.com/video/KwZJGJu7vJY/v-deo.html This specific live performance is the best, and in 4K. You will also hear a harmonica play, like you have never heard before in your life.
Jimmy is great. He does a great job of this. He is one of the best that Australia has to offer. Now I'd love you to go and check out John Farnham's cover of this song 'When The War Is Over' from Whispering Jack in concert. It is mind blowing!!!! It's the same song, but given the unique Farnsey spin to it.
If you like this you will love "Working Class Man" by Jimmy Barnes (Cold Chisel lead vocal) OR Ian Moss (guitarist) - Tucker's Daughter has a great solo in it. Eventually you will get to Jimmy Barnes - Stone Cold feat Joe Bonamassa on guitar. It always blows my mind.
I agree with those below, this is a mashup of different videos...just dive in and search for more, one of my fav songs of there's is 'My baby' for sentimental reasons. Jimmy Barnes is from my home town and cold chisel played at my high school when I was 14...in 1976! Flame Trees is another classic but they have so many.
You need to look at their cover of wild thing live performance last stand version Its when they where young jimmy singing and you'll get to see how good ian moss on guitar 🎸 is several solo See if you can work out what he's doing with guitar 🎸 Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺👍
The video is a tad weird. The first part is from their song, Choir Girl. Jimmy Barnes, aka Barnsey, sings that song as lead (and looks mighty fine if you ask me). However in this tune, the lead singer is the guitarist Ian Moss aka Mossy. And he is a brilliant guitarist too. He provides the blues, and Jimmy the soul and rock. The fight scene is from their song, Star Hotel, based on a true story about the closure of a hotel, and fight between the public and police. Jimmy comes in at 6.17 with high back up vocals. Jimmy then sings from 6.37 ❤🔥 Then both he and Ian sing at 7.40 Other members of the band include Phil Small on Base, Don Walker on Keys and Steve Prestwich RIP on drums. Their history? Well they formed in 1973, first album was in 1978. They are known as a pub rock band. Australian bands had to be successful playing live to make it. The bands worked hard, travelled a lot to gigs. It was not an easy life. They had numerous number 1 albums and disbanded in 1983, even releasing another album after that in 1984 which did brilliantly. Jimmy went solo and has continued to have a great career. Ian has had some solo success as well. Steve had a stint in the Little River Band and passed of brain cancer on 16th January 2011. Whilst all band members had hit songs, Don Walker has had so much success writing songs. He wrote Stone Cold for Jimmy Barnes as well. I would check out the 2003 Ringside concert Bow River (also sung mostly by the guitarist Mossy) and this song again at the same venue. Despite the band disbanding, they have reformed to complete more albums and concerts since then. They are celebrating 50 years of music. I have tickets to see them in October 2024. Massive fan. I can't wait. #Jimmyismynumber1 artist. Check out anything from his 1984 inaugural concert from the Playroom. The full concert is on a page by Casey Cooper. There are individual videos too, including those on Dr_Kap YT channel. Enjoy!
As good as this version is, there are many better! 2003 ringside is considered the best. But nonetheless, you stumbled upon one of the best bands ever!
Guitarist and first verse belong to Ian Moss, then Jimmy kicks in. Legendary band in Australia history
This is one of my favourite Aussie songs
They actually had to be more convincing to be worth the money back then than now! These guys are selling, selling and selling! They brought it❤

There's a few live tracks from a more recent concert that showcases Ian Moss' guitar skills a lot more

That was the Star Hotel Riots.
Long story short, they wanted to close down an iconic pub and the locals were up in arms about it.

Would love for you to check out the live version from 2003 Ringside
Absolutely should do a reaction to that!
The band gets better as time goes by

Footage was the 1979 Star Hotel riot in Newcastle, NSW.
This documentary has interviews with the participants: ua-cam.com/video/JQ_TZ_obB4o/v-deo.html
I was there🤣🤣🤦♂️🤦♂️, they closed our pub down that night for good😭😭
What pub was that ?
Tha footage is wrong, thats the vid for Star Hotel
Jimmy isn't the lead vocal on this one - Ian Moss is. Jimmy joins in later. Mossy is lead on a lot of their hits
Great commentary- this is such a great song . Check out John Farnham's live version with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra!
More Chisel.
If you are happy to continue down the “Chisel” path, LIVE Ringside videos are the way to go 😄🇦🇺😄🇦🇺
Thanks for that Welder, there's a beautiful song & guitar solo by Ian Moss called "Georgia"..Well worth watching !!

Try Bow River live for introduction to Cold Chisel
Thanks

Its when they where young jimmy singing and you'll get to see how good ian moss on guitar 🎸 is several solo
See if you can work out what he's doing with guitar 🎸

Dude you need to listen to "Bow River".

Jimmy then sings from 6.37 ❤🔥
Then both he and Ian sing at 7.40

yeah but it's good to start with the studio version for the uninitiated.
Better when he duets this song with John Farnham
This is a mix up of different videos. They don't sync with the vocals. Riot scenes are from the song Star Hotel.
The video is not connected to the song at all. The video is just clips from different cold chisel songs.
Watch the ringside version , better
Yeah wrong one it’s the 2003 live one is the best..
wrong version
