I really like Jimmy Barnes' vocals. That said, Cold Chisel is one of my favorites. I have to admit I like Jimmy Barnes' solo material far better but the voice makes this CD worthwhile. January 26, 2008

Awesome collection of this lengendary Australian band's most popular songs. It takes you back to the day.... January 7, 2008

Cold Chisel defined aussie rock in the early to mid 80s, and have proven to be the cornerstone for most serious ausralian rock acts since. This album gives you a good slice of their material, a bunch of sweaty raw ballads that bring a sense of pride to many a true blue bloke under 50 years of age. Jimmy Barnes went on to have a successful solo career in Australia, but the blending of him with Moss and Walker in this band was simply magic.
This album's collection of songs holds up today as a living snapshot of aussie pub life, and no australian bar is without a few of these tunes in their discbox.
If you like glitchy, commercial rock then this band never was for you. But if you like the rawness of a sweaty live act that was not tied to one genre then this disc will end up having a fair bit of airplay for you.
Go ahead and buy it, I doubt it will disappoint June 3, 2007

With all due respect to Aussies who were young when this band was hot, as an objective listener without the historical/emotional baggage I have to say that this stuff here ain't so hot. Supposed Bob Seeger joined a band which was half Huey Lewis' News and half Little River Band. You'd have something, but you wouldn't have a whole lot more than a nice, highly talented, polished up bar band. Nothing awful but nothing great. March 22, 2007

I was told by my friends in Australia the last song on this album is like Free Bird is for us. I don't get it. It is just another '80's rock and roll band. Nothing memorable January 3, 2007
