Joe Camilleri put together the first incarnation of The Black Sorrows in 1983 after coming off the back of one of Australia’s most successful bands from the 70s Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons.

The Black Sorrows reached a new level with hits like ‘Hold On To Me’, ‘Chained To The Wheel’ and ‘Harley and Rose’.

Jump forward to now and there is a new Black Sorrows record to talk about called ‘Crooked Little Thoughts’.

This one is an epic, a 3CD set with a 72 page book.

To talk about all things Black Sorrows Joe Camilleri joined Paul Cashmere in the Noise11.com studios.
