Making its debut on vinyl, Cold Chisel are proud to release The Live Tapes Vol. 1: Hordern Pavilion. April 18, 2012 as a 3LP, 180 gram vinyl set.

This particular Cold Chisel live performance will be long remembered by those who endured the monsoonal thunderstorm which lit up Sydney as the band electrified the Hordern Pavilion that night. The gig came just a few months after Cold Chisel had wrapped their unforgettable "Light The Nitro" tour. The 36 dates on that run set all sorts of sales records, drawing over 300,000 people across Australasia.

"We were really road hardened by the time of that Hordern gig because we'd just finished that big tour a few months prior", reflects the band's frontman, Jimmy Barnes. "Adding a few new songs in the set for those launch gigs kept things fresh for us. Listening and watching it back, it's raw and primal, warts and all - like the best rock & roll should be."

The 21 tracks are spread over 3 x 180 gram vinyl discs; each of the vinyl discs housed in a full colour printed sleeve with imagery from the performance.
