This will also be the first time that the 4 additional tracks (\"Juliet\", \"Never Before\", \"Ita\" and \"Merry-Go-Round\") from the 2011 Collector's Edition CD have been pressed on Vinyl LP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwingshift was Cold Chisel's first #1 record and is often cited as one of the definitive Australian live albums. The recordings were captured in the winter of 1980 at two iconic venues - Sydney's Capitol Theatre (supported by INXS and Mental As Anything) and Melbourne's Palais Theatre (supported by Australian Crawl and Matt Finish) -  as the band wrapped up their triumphant ‘Youth In Asia' tour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat huge run of dates in support of their breakthrough album East involved 64 shows in 88 days and catapulted Cold Chisel to the biggest band in the land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecalling this period in his recent award-winning memoir the band's frontman, Jimmy Barnes said:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"We were like Stormtroopers marching across Australia. We were on top of the world. The pace we were keeping was blistering. More towns, more girls, more booze, more drugs and all in less time. Longer sets, faster songs and even longer drives.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"I remember the Sydney show very well,\" reflects keyboardist and main songwriter, Don Walker. \"It was pretty much the highlight of that tour. By the time we did it we'd played the East album all over the country and this was bringing everything back home.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA review by RAM Magazine's Greg Taylor a few days after the Capitol Theatre gig gushed:  \"Talk about rare moments of joy with the right crowd. By their own admission and the audience's this was one of Cold Chisel's best nights on the current tour. A long set that started way up and miraculously kept on building. Part of it was the skillful addition of outside elements; the guest solo's from David Blight's harmonica and Billy Roger's sax, but the heart of it was the band. Five parts of one incredibly fit musical body, tour hardened and album confident.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to an already long list of their own classics like \"Khe Sanh\", \"Breakfast At Sweethearts\", \"Choir Girl\" and \"Cheap Wine\", Swingshift is memorable for the band's searing covers of Bob Dylan's \"Knocking' On Heaven's Door\", Creedence Clearwater Revival's \"Long As I Can See The Light\" and the Jesse Stone (via Jerry Lee Lewis) rockabilly gem \"Don't Let Go\", which has gone on to become a staple of Cold Chisel tours ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCritics and fans alike have long hailed Swingshift as a landmark album. Now it is finally being returned to its original Vinyl LPglory (with additional tracks from the same shows).  Jimmy Barnes' parting words during the album's closing song really say it all: \"fuckin' classic\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVinyl Colour\/Design may slightly vary from the images shown on the website\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600;\"\u003eRELEASE DETAILS\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat: \u003c\/strong\u003e[180g], [Live Recording], [2LP]\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReleased:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff6600;\"\u003eTRACKLISTING\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pdp-jss-groupItem-216\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"pdp-jss-groupTitle-217\"\u003eLP - SIDE A\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col class=\"pdp-jss-groupTrackList-218\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eConversations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eJuliet - Previously unreleased on Vinyl LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eShipping Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eBreakfast At Sweethearts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eRising Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eNever Before - Previously unreleased on Vinyl LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pdp-jss-groupItem-216\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"pdp-jss-groupTitle-217\"\u003eLP - SIDE B\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col class=\"pdp-jss-groupTrackList-218\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eChoirgirl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eKhe Sanh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eMy Turn to Cry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eFour Walls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eOne Long Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pdp-jss-groupItem-216\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"pdp-jss-groupTitle-217\"\u003eLP - SIDE C\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col class=\"pdp-jss-groupTrackList-218\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eKnockin' on Heaven's Door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eMy Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eIta - Previously unreleased on Vinyl LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eStar Hotel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eDon't Let Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pdp-jss-groupItem-216\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"pdp-jss-groupTitle-217\"\u003eLP - SIDE D\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col class=\"pdp-jss-groupTrackList-218\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eLong as I Can See the Light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eThe Party's Over\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eMerry-Go-Round - Previously unreleased on Vinyl LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eCheap Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"pdp-jss-listItem-219\"\u003eGoodbye (Astrid, Goodbye)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rock-Pop-Alt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42036765786230,"sku":"CC004LP","price":48.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/3009\/6246\/files\/CC004LP.jpg?v=1741573283","url":"https:\/\/rockaway.com.au\/products\/cold-chisel-swingshift-2lp-vinyl","provider":"Rockaway Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
