Cold Chisel - The Best of Cold Chisel: All for You '2011

Tracks list

 Australian rock veterans Cold Chisel may have continued to remain a
crowd-drawing, if slightly sporadic, live presence throughout the last decade,
but up until now have been strangely reluctant to add to their back catalog of
national treasures. However, following the death of their drummer Steve
Prestwich earlier in the year, Jimmy Barnes and company have regrouped for their
first new compositions in over 13 years, ensuring that All for You is more
intriguing than your average cynical cash-in compilation. Indeed, alongside the
emotive barroom balladry of the title track and the old-school rockabilly of
HQ454 Monroe, both of which fit comfortably next to the other 18 more familiar
favorites, the track list, selected by thousands of visitors on their official
website, also highlights the fact that this is very much a fan-friendly affair.
Most of the hits are still in attendance, from their 1978 debut single, Khe
Sanh, to the Top Ten singles Cheap Wine and Forever Now to When the War Is Over,
the soft rock ballad that Australian Idol winner Cosima de Vito later took to
the top of the charts, while quite handily, all the five studio albums from
their late-70s/early-80s heyday are represented. But elsewhere, their loyal fan
base has decided to give some of their lesser-known tracks a bit of exposure, as
evident by Yakuza Girls, one of just two cuts from their 1998 comeback album,
The Last Wave of Summer, and Shipping Steel, a flop single from 1979s Breakfast
at Sweethearts. The Adelaide quintets tales of excess have often overshadowed
their musical output, but All for You is a labor of love proving that they
deserve their legendary status.
