You"ve heard Jon Stevens sing. You"ve heard the sonic boom of Noiseworks and INXS; the dramatic versatility of Judas in the blockbuster "90s version of Jesus Christ Superstar; and the alternately tender and tearing voice of five solo albums. The Works is a tight and emotional re-crafting of tunes from three Noiseworks albums, and his most recent solo record, Ain"t No Life For The Faint Hearted; It is also the culmination of Jon"s last year on the road with the acoustic trio of Tony Kopa (drums), Chris Bekker (bass) and Simon Hosford (guitar). And of course, that distinctive voice: one of the mightiest threads weaving through the last 20 years of Australian music, captured here at a new peak of power and intimacy. Liberation. 2005.
