Thanks for your comments Chris Worrall. You are certainly lucky to have been on that job. I was merely a 14 yr old at the time and still consider this one of my favourite albums.
He lost me with his next efforts but that doesn't diminish what he had going in the period after Cold Chisel and before Working Class man.
My favourite all time Jimmy song. Bodyswerve was raw and had one of the best guitarists in Mal Eastick. This was ever repeated in Jimmy's ensuing career imo, unfortunately.
VERY underrated & a period of Australian music that is forgotten. Saw Jimmy and band play live so many times between 1984 & 86 seemed they never stopped touring. B.Swerve #1,(East + Circus Animals #1s, Last Stand shows total sold out) yet we all believed you still had to earn cred on the road. Albums had to be songs that you could actually play live. Promise is so powerfull on album, but it was a mind blower live, will never forget Rob Riley torturing his guitar for the solos post Mal E
directed by Cris Lofven and Chris Worrall (me)...the thing about Jimmy always was he wouldn't mime he just sang along REALLY LOUD..at one point we were using the helicopter as a wind machine to blow his hair around and you could still hear him over the engine!!....oh and that last terrifying shot of the lone figure on the cliff above shark infested waters is me wearing Jimmy's jacket..he wanted to get away early and take his son for a ride in the chopper
