For fans (outside of Aus), I don't think he (nor many others) had a better run of albums than Jimmy Barnes, Freight Train Heart, Barnestorming, Two Fires and Soul Deep (one of the best covers albums going).
His last 2 albums were very good, and he's released some great stuff over the years...
The guy is one of my absolute faves. It was fucking immense travelling up to Newcastle last year to see him!
(I've always wanted to hear Paul Shortino make an album like Freight Train Heart... in some moments I think i'd love to hear him record that album himself with Tony Brock, Neil Stubenhaus and Dave Amato (maybe replacing The Last Frontier with When The War Is Over), so that fans of that album outside of Australia might get a chance of hearing it performed live!
Oh if I had the money, I'd have a label full of weird shit! lol!)
