DESCRIPTION

Making its debut on Vinyl LP, Cold Chisel are proud to release "The Live Tapes Vol. 1: Hordern Pavilion. April 18, 2012" as a 3LP, 180 gram Vinyl LPset.

This particular Cold Chisel live performance will be long remembered by those who endured the monsoonal thunderstorm which lit up Sydney as the band electrified the Hordern Pavilion that night. The gig came just a few months after Cold Chisel had wrapped their unforgettable "Light The Nitro" tour. The 36 dates on that run set all sorts of sales records, drawing over 300,000 people across Australasia.

"We were really road hardened by the time of that Hordern gig because we'd just finished that big tour a few months prior", reflects the band's frontman, Jimmy Barnes. "Adding a few new songs in the set for those launch gigs kept things fresh for us. Listening and watching it back, it's raw and primal, warts and all - like the best rock & roll should be."

"The Live Tapes" has been an ongoing series for Cold Chisel over the last decade, with 5 Volumes having been released in this time to the delight of Cold Chisel devotees.

This marks the first time the Live Tapes Volume 1 has been issued on Vinyl LP. The 21 tracks are spread over 3 x 180 gram Vinyl LPdiscs; each of Vinyl LPdiscs housed in a full colour printed sleeve with imagery from the performance.

…a true must-have to complete your ‘Live Tapes’ collection.
