Released in December 1985, For The Working Class Man went straight to number one on the Australian chart and helped define Jimmy’s hugely successful solo career. As the authors of The 100 Best Australian Albums declared, “It defined both him and much of Australia.”
“For The Working Class Man was such a significant album in my life. I got to make the record with some amazing people, and it really set up the rest of my solo career. I’m so excited to be celebrating For The Working Class Man with one of my dearest friends and favourite artists. And I can think of no better way to mark this milestone than by performing these songs with my New Zealand fans.”
