Alessandro Sorbello http://www.AlessandroSorbello.com Filmed and produced Jo Camilleri and the Black Sorrows http://www.theblacksorrows.com.au/ performance of 'The Chosen One' Filmed with Camcorder so the audio is not great, however a great track by the Black Sorrows. A real joy to see it live.
The Black Sorrows opening act was TRIM http://www.trim.com - direct from Rome Italy, Australian 'uncut tour'. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEhO9ZB2aQs
Joe Camilleri's http://www.joecamilleri.com.au/ Jo Jo Zep and the Falcons were pioneers of the Oz rock scene delivering a a ska and blue beat influence previously unseen in Aussie rock... Speaking of the induction to ARIA Hall of Fame Camilleri offered: "After all is said and done, it's a good thing to celebrate, and a nice thing to recognize, the fact that 30 years ago a band which was true to itself helped shape the distinctly Australian music culture we all love today".
Beginning as a loose Melbourne pick-up band playing mostly covers of R&B, zydeco and blues songs, The Black Sorrows eventually evolved into a unit that scored several top 40 Australian hits with original material. In the beginning, though, The Black Sorrows were simply a way for singer Joe Camilleri to play some fun, low-pressure gigs after the dissolution of Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons. From 1983-1988, Camilleri adopted the psuedonym 'Joey Vincent' for his performances with the band.
Membership in the band has always been loose and fluid. Most of The Falcons were (at one point or another) members of The Black Sorrows; several dozen other Australian vocalists and musicians have drifted in and out of the line-up over the years, with Camilleri being the only constant.
The early line-up (c. 1983/84) included 'Joey Vincent' (i.e. Camilleri) on vocals and sax, Paul Williamson (sax/clarinet), Jeff Burstin (guitar), Wayne Burt (guitar), Wayne Duncan (bass), Gary Young (drums), George Butrumlis (accordion, piano) and Steve McTaggart (violin). Camilleri, Burstin, Burt and Young had all been members of Jo Jo Zep and the Falcons. The Black Sorrows first two albums were recorded live off-the-floor, and consisted almost entirely of R&B cover songs by the likes of Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, Arthur Alexander, Don Covay and John Lee Hooker.
1986-1993
By the time of their first top 20 album, 1986's Dear Children, the Black Sorrows were playing original material and the official line up was Camilleri, Burstin, Nick Smith (lyrics/backing vocals), Johnny Charles (bass) and Peter Luscombe (drums). However, 15 musicians actually played on the Dear Children album, including Butrumlis.
For 1987's Hold On To Me, Smith left -- though he continued writing lyrics for Black Sorrows songs for the following two decades. Returning to the official line-up was one-time Falcons guitarist Wayne Burt. Other changes were also made: Charles was replaced by Mick Girasole on bass (Girasole had actually played on several Dear Children tracks), and backing vocalists Vika and Linda Bull were added. The Bull Sisters readily identifible singing style became a big part of The Black Sorrows' sound, and Hold On To Me spawned 3 top 40 hits in Australia ('Hold On To Me', 'Chained To The Wheel' and 'The Crack-Up').
For 1990's Harley & Rose, Jen Anderson was added on violin, and Richard Sega replaced Girasole on bass.
Beginning in the early 1990s, Camilleri also fronted The Revelators (originally The Delta Revelators). This band's line-up was practically identical to The Black Sorrows, the only real difference being that The Revelators returned to the early Sorrows roots of playing largely R&B-oriented cover songs. The Revelators released their first album in 1991.
Burt left the band again prior to the Black Sorrows 1992 album Better Times, and yet another new bassist was added in the person of Stephen Hadley, replacing Sega. Also added to the line-up were keyboard player James Black and percussionist Michael Barker. Finally, Laurie Polec took over as the band's primarily lyricist, although Nick Smith would still contribute to this and future Black Sorrows releases.
After a further 1993 single from this line-up (a cover of Bob Marley's "Stir It Up"), Camilleri dissolved the band and set about creating a new version of The Black Sorrows.
1994-present
Camilleri retained only Hadley from the previous line-up for 1994's Lucky Charm. This album was recorded in New York, and although Camilleri was the only musician to be featured on every track, most of the album featured a band consisting of Camilleri (vocals, sax), Hadley (bass), Claude Carranza (guitar), Kerryn Tolhurst (guitar, mandolin, keyboards), Andy York (guitars) and Steve Ferrone (drums). Lyrics for the album's songs were by James Griffin, Nick Smith and Laurie Polic.
1998's Beat Club featured a similarly loose policy towards maintaining an official lineup, with Camilleri being joined by Stephen Hadley, Wayne Burt, Jeff Burstin, James Black and many session musicians. Somewhat more jazz-oriented in tone than previous Black Sorrows releases, the lead single "New Craze" was nominated for a 1998 ARIA award for most played jazz composition in Australia.
After a long period of inactivity, The Black Sorrows released an acoustic album in 2004. This line-up included Camilleri and Hadley, returning band members Jeff Burstin and James Black, and new drummer Tony Floyd.
The band's most recent album is Roarin Town, released in October 2006. For this release, The Black Sorrows were Camilleri, Hadley, Black, Floyd, and the returning Carranza. Carranza had also played with Camilleri in yet another side-project band, Bakelite Radio, which released two albums in 2003/04.
The Black Sorrows are currently on tour as a seven-piece band consisting of Joe Camilleri (lead vocals, sax), James Black (keyboards), Joe Creighton (backing vocals), Claude Carranza (guitar), Tony Floyd (drums), Annette Roche (backing vocals), and Troy McMillan (bass). (Less)
