- This is a reaction video of Cold Chisel performing "Bow River" live from the "Ringside" tour in June 2003 at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney. Ian Moss starts singing the song and is later joined by Jimmy Barnes as a duet. Jimmy does get his solo and sings with a very gravely voice (WOW). There is a harp player throughout the song who also does a super harmonica solo in the instrumental break. Ian also makes his guitar scream after the harp solo. This song simply rocks from top to bottom. Enjoy ...

Ian Moss also does a FANTASTIC cover of the American classic, 'Georgia'. It's beautiful !
Yes there are several versions but I came across one from 1978 recently which was beautiful
Hi @barnowl ... It is now on my list to react to. Thanks and keep rockin' ...
@@drivingwithtodd1781 Maate, do you Last Stand tour version, pure brilliance.
There are SO MANY Chisel songs that are all so different. They are still imo the best band in Australia
Mossy and Barnseys vocals compliment each other. Like two peas in a pod. Great reaction
A bloke named Dave blight on the harp from adelaide south australia is a bit of a music legend in his own right.
God's harmonica player.
You know, I've never heard anyone compare Jimmy to Slade's Holder, but you're spot on about that.
Thanks for the reaction. Funny you mention Jimmy’s voice and vocal cords. Jimmy in a past interview had said
When I first started, all the reviews of Cold Chisel would say, "This singer won't have a voice in six months." That was 45 years ago. I've taught myself a different way of singing. See, when a normal person sings, they use their vocal cords …
My secondary cords or "false cords". There are groups of them around the main cords. I discovered this many years ago. I'd had a bug, and because it was such a big show and we were postponing, I had to get a doctor's certificate for insurance. This throat specialist put a camera down my throat, and had me talking and singing. And he said, "You don't use your vocal cords." Singers who scream as much as I do tend to have problems. But my body found a way of self-defence.
WOW, great info 👏👏👏
The Harmonica is not part if this 5 person band, Ian Moss on lead vocals and guitar, Jimmy Barnes, Phil Small on bass, Don Walker on piano and Steve Prestwich on drums. However, that being said, he is brilliant. His name is Dave Blight.
Hi @kazz3956 ... Thank you for the info on the harmonica player. I looked him up on the internet. There are some nice words about him on the website amrap.org.au/artist/mick-kidd-david-blight-1. I really enjoy the added sound of the harmonica in a good blues/rock tune. Take care and rock on ...
@@drivingwithtodd1781 thank you
You may have noticed a bit of harp on Khe Sangh, the first chisel reaction you did. That was David Blight. You can also hear him on the Swingshift album. Do yourself a favour and listen to "one long day" from that album.
One of my best mates in high school lived three doors down from davo. Bloke was a fucking legend of a dude, we used to hang with him all the time and he always had time for us teenagers that loved what he did.
Mossy also performs Georgia. Great 🎉 fist concert I ever went to here down under was Slade 😂
Hi @narellesmith7932 ... May need to check out "Georgia". A great choice of a band for your first concert. Rock on ...
Great reaction..I believe this song was written by Ian Moss about wanting to go home to the Northern Territory (NT is known as the top end). If you want to see something different from them I would look at choir girl, forever now, cheap wine or Saturday night
Hi @mgreen1206 ... I will add your suggestion to the LOOOOONNNGGG list of Chisel songs I need to react to. Thank you for your kind words. Enjoy and Rock n Roll ...
@@drivingwithtodd1781 Thankyou for your great reactions, choir girl is a great song and is about a guy taking a girl for termination.. Saturday night is brilliant as well. Most of Jimmys family are musical.. his daughter Mahalia is fantastic and he has a son called David Campbell.. until David was around 10 he thought Jimmy was family friend. David was born when jimmy was 16 and he was brought up thinking that his nana was his mum and he
was told that his real mum was his sister. David looks a lot like Jimmy and David is on TV as a morning show host. David can sing and David and Jimmy singing “you will never walk alone” is so emotional 🥲
And dont forget to check out ian Moss has a good solo career as well. Check out his hit Tucker's daughter@drivingwithtodd1781
you really know how to get into good music Todd. Cheers mate....................
Hi @tommyau2006 ... Music makes the world go around, especially my world. Thanks and keep rockin' ...
Interesting comments about the video quality. I’m happy to put up a 4K version and remaster the audio if people want it. Problem is when I do most reactors will choose the crap version anyway 😂 also while this is awesome some of their best performances are from the late 70’s and early 80’s before they broke up. I have links to the full concerts in HD on my cloud drive as well as my discography if you’re interested just get in touch via my page.
Hi @Dr_KAP ... When I do a reaction and there are several versions to chose from, I will admit I will do a 5 or 10 second sample of each to try and pick the best. I do like quality in both the video and audio, though I did not mind the lower resolution on this video since the audio was so darned good! Keep rockin' ...
@@drivingwithtodd1781 yes all good Todd- I was not suggesting you chose a bad version at all- as there isn’t a good one out there. I’ll put it on my to do list 😂 all the best mate.
This is the reason why back in the 70's when the US record labels came knocking and told them you will need to change for the American Audience, they told them to bugger off and wrote the song You Got Nothing I Want.
Awesome. Once you’ve got a few more Chisel songs under your belt, there’s a rabbit hole of classic Aussie pub rock songs from the 70s and 80s that I think you will love.
Over thirty years since I first heard this and it still kicks arsew
Ian Moss has one of the best Aussie Rock voices. 🇦🇺
Love how much this hits home for you. Chisel are indeed pure Gold Standard - and there is so much difference between this and 'When the War is Over', ' Four Walls', "Saturday Night', 'Forever Now' and 'Flames trees' just goes to show the strength of having 5 top quality song writers and two world class vocalist in the same band.
While your heading down the Aussie music rabbit hole you've got to check out early Midnight Oil for live intensity and a kick arse show.
Their live concert 'Oils on Water' from 1985 is one of the great live shows recorded.
Check out the songs 'Power and the Passion', 'Stand in Line', 'Read about it' and 'Only the Strong'.
You will not be disappointed by what the Oils bring - they'll completely blow you away.
Keep up the great reactions.
when jimmy comes in like a chainsaw i get goosebumps sooo good !
Our best band. Ian Moss is brilliant. Note that Jimmy is lead singer normally but Ian has plenty of solo's too. Rare to see a band with two leads. Keep digging, there is a treasure trove of diverse Chisel numbers. The whole band are talented, the full package.
Great reaction mate. Just love this pub rock group. You should take a look at Mossy's solo rendition of Georgia. Unforgettable. That's after you do When the war is over, another Barnsy and Mossy duet performance.
Great reaction. My number 1 playlist is Chisel and i probably have about 18 hours of play, their catalogue is so huge. First saw the boys in '75 and saw Jimmy last year, can't count how many concerts in between there
Mossy is the main man for me! Such a fricking legend in this country!!
Great reaction mate. Got some homework for ya.
When the war is over
Cheap wine
Saturday night
Flame trees
Choir girl
Shipping steel
Standing on the outside looking in
These will give you a true look at their range
There are two things in popular music than any music fan in the know is aware of and that's 'swing' and 'soul'. Yet try to get one of them to define those terms and they will probably be struck silent. Cold Chisel's closest effort to swing was in the almost jazz tune of "Breakfast at Sweethearts." However, when it comes to singing with soul, you'll hear it every time Ian Moss sings. Jim Barnes may have had the power and the volume, but Mossie had the soul, God bless him!
One of the reasons they didn't do well in the US is because the record people there couldn't pigeon hole Cold Chisel into one genre as they cover many genres. Ian Moss is a big Jimi Hendrix fan, so you might hear a bit of Hendrix in his playing.
The record company execs wanted another LRB and Chisel being Chisel wouldn't bend.
Hi @kevkoala ... I noticed that Ian enjoyed Hendrix based on his guitar playing on the "Wild Thing" video I reacted to. If you are going to have a guitar hero, Hendrix is your man! Keep rockin' ...
By far the best performance of Georgia is entitled "Cold Chisel Live 1983 Ian Moss performs Georgia on My Mind".
It wasn't on the set list and a young man tasked with filming the concert uploaded this amazing performance 30 years after the event - it's found on his channel "Eternal Pictures".
You hear the music start and in the first minute or two he sets the scene, then the camera comes into action and captures - pure magic!
If you want another rocking vibe chisel song, check out "Letter to Alan". Then try "lost" and "Water into wine" for a slow, chill, smooth song. Every song really is different. Bow River hits hard, especially "I've been working hard, 12 hours a day, but the money I'll save won't buy my youth again."
Check out Chisel doing Wild Thing live (Last Stand tour). It will blow your mind
Always enjoy your smiling enthusiasm in your reactions 👍
Yeah Chisel has so many different vibes within their songs & albums.
🎶A Short, absolute Classic!.. you could add as a bonus track to a reaction is - Four Walls. It was always a superb filler at the end of a tape back in the day, when you needed a 2-3minute track.
Personally I prefer the studio album version for this one,as the lyrics stand out better..just my opinion.
It's written as - Four Walls (2011 Remastered) on RUclips.
✌️🇦🇺
Australian Southern Rock. Who knew?
Welcome to Australia in 2003.
one long day is a little different from chisel but one of their best. check it out. shows their musical diversity.
From the start you put your finger on it...Cold Chisel would have been a great band without Jimmy because of how good Ian Moss is as a vocalist but holy shit, you want a brilliantly great band, just add a dash of Jimmy. The other point that needs mentioning is how the two lead singers complement each other, and it is a no ego combination. Lastly, as i've gotten older, i can't help but notice how on point the rhythm section is on every song. As for the songwriting, it speaks for itself. My favourite band is Led Zeppelin because they are just rock gods but if i had my way, Chisel is the support band for that concert in Heaven (only if St Peter lets Jimmy through the gates that is lol). The harp player is David Blight. He's a guest performer that they have used live and in the studio throughout their career. One of the best i've heard. He does a brilliant back and forth intro with Ian Moss on their live song One Long Day from the Swingshift album. You will only have the audio but it is something else.
Great reaction, thanks mate
Thanks for that. Glad you liked it.
I don't think it's so wild to compare Cold Chisel to Rolling Stones. That's a fair sort of contemporary example I would think. Obviously Chisel don't have the wide spread appeal the Stones do, but they both happily straddled rock and blues as well as ducking into all sorts of different genres as it appealed to them.
Check out Jimmy with Tina Turna singing Simply The Best
You compare everyone else to Jimmy, you DO NOT compare Jimmy to anyone else
I agree that Jimmy's voice has similarities to that of Noddy Holder from Slade. I remember a classic description of Noddy's voice back in the day was that it was like a buzz-saw. I was a big fan of Slade back then. I think Jimmy has managed his voice very well over the last 40 years or so, I don't know about Noddy though. I did see him on a British TV show a while back, and his speaking voice still had the grit, so maybe not too bad.
Jimmy gargles on Drano.....................
the harp player was a regular but not a band member.
Mate you need to do Four Walls and Flame trees also and check out Choirboys Run to Paradise and Boys will be Boys
Aussies say hi
most aussie songs start slow then lift the roof.
do Cold Chisel wild colonial boy
Better than anything Springsteen could do.
Cold chisel is better than the rolling Stones
Noddy Holder is nothing like Jimmy Barnes I grew up with Slade in the late 60's early 70's he had a load voice but not like Jimmy's both great bands 1 English 1 Australian
