Cold Chisel To Release Ringside of Vinyl

Cold Chisel’s 2003 live album ‘Ringside’ will be released on vinyl for the first time.

‘Ringside’ was recorded over four nights in June 2003. Its collectibles for Chisel fans were Steve Prestwich’s previously unreleased ‘Lovelight’ and ‘All I Wanna Do’ and Don Walker’s ‘Fallen Angel’. It also had covers of Johnny Cash’s ‘Big River’, Julie London’s ‘Cry Me A River’ and Dragon’s ‘Sunshine’.

“We loved playing those shows,” says Jimmy Barnes. “I remember the band had a real swing about it. And it was great mixing up the set list, playing some obscure tracks and covers like ‘Big River’ and ‘Sunshine’.”

A CD/DVD edition will also feature new artwork. “When our management started digging into the archive for ‘Ringside’, they lucked upon a design that we did for these shows,” says Don Walker. “It was an image created by Carl Bellesini from Love Police and it captured the romance of the travelling tent boxing shows, back at the start of last century. It’s a different take on the original artwork, which is still represented on the vinyl release and was designed by the brilliant pop artist, Martin Sharp. This new and ‘lost’ artwork also caught the spirit of what we were attempting to do with the shows – and we all thought it would be good to switch it up.”

Ringside is released on the band’s own label via Universal Music on Friday, 12 November 2021.
