Jimmy Barnes is a clear record holder for number one albums with his latest ‘My Criminal Record’ debuting at number one on Australia’s ARIA Chart this week.

‘My Criminal Record’ is Jimmy’s 12th number one solo album. He also has four number one albums via Cold Chisel.

Jimmy Barnes said today, “The songs on this album are really personal
because they were inspired by the experiences I had writing and touring
my memoirs. Having this music strike a chord with people therefore feels
particularly good. I’m grateful to everyone who’s continued to support me
over the years and I’m looking forward to screaming my thanks in person
when I get back out on the road shortly.”
