  • Adventures of the Amazing Revelators
    The Adventures of the Amazing Revelators "I don't see this as a greatest hits recording, more an opportunity to pay homage to some of the great writers of our time. The Revelators were formed out of a desire to keep this music alive. Some of these songs have been with us for some time - others we were drawn to because of their charm.... and every word is true." Joe Camilleri These were the words that graced The Revelators' 1991 debut CD release. 'Debut' is an odd word to use for a group of musicians who have been an integral part of the Australian music scene for so long. The Revelators The Revelators story started in the late 80's when Joe Camilleri, along with friends James Black and Joe Creighton, took to the stage as 'The Delta Revelators' . Their desire was to blow out the serious days' work with people who shared the same interest in music and who simply wanted to play it. On stage with Pete Luscombe on drums (Black Sorrows, Paul Kelly, Rebecca's Empire) and Jeff Burstin on guitar (Black Sorrows, Vika & Linda) the word spread that this was a great band. Soon the occasional gig was not enough to keep the punters happy. Regular sessions at ID's (now The Continental) and The Botanical Hotel had the fans asking 'When are you going to do a CD?' 'Amazing Stories' 'Amazing Stories' was released in 1991 and everyone in the band agreed it was the best album they had ever made. The fans felt the same and the CD is still eagerly sought after by roots music aficionados.

  • Biography 2002
    THE BLACK SORROWS Biography 2002 Joe Camilleri is an Australian legend who has given his life to music. In the mid 80s following the success of his first band, Jo Jo Zep and The Falcons, Joe Camilleri gathered together a group of musician friends and dubbed them The Black Sorrows. The band began playing for the fun of it, recording independent albums and selling them out of the boot of his car. When radio picked up the classic track, 'Mystified',The Black Sorrows really took flight. They signed to CBS and proceeded to release some of Australia's most successful albums including the multi-platinum sellers Hold On To Me, Harley & Rose and The Chosen Ones. Over the past fifteen years, The Black Sorrows have toured Australia more times than anyone can remember, played sell out shows across Europe, won the ARIA for 'Best Band' and sold more than a million albums world-wide. Joe Camilleri's songs have become part of our lives. The Sorrows' string of hits is seemingly endless: Dear Children, Country Girls, Snake Skin Shoes, Harley & Rose, The Chosen Ones, Mystified, Ain't Love The Strangest Thing, Better Times, Never Let Me Go, Chained To The Wheel, Daughters of Glory, Stir It Up, New Craze... and he's certainly not done yet. Look around the world and you have to put Joe in the same company as people like Eric Clapton and Van Morrison - legends, performers whose careers span decades, transcending all styles and fads, performers who are loved for the fact that they're obviously in it for the music.

  • Bio the Revelators
    The Revelators LAUNCH THEIR 3rd LP THE REVELATORS So you’ve played the stadiums, you’ve topped the charts, you’ve toured the world and racked up gold, platinum and sundry other mantelpiece trifles. You’ve written songs, recorded albums, managed bands, produced bands, played sessions and watched your stock rise, fall and rise again on the whims of fashion. Four decades later, what really matters? For The Revelators, THE it’s the music itself and the people you play it with. It’s how much you love it and how well you do it. And it’s something REVELATORS else you’ll never quite put your finger on. James Black: ‘It’s probably a soul thing primarily. We like roots music, that style of playing, that mixture of blues and soul and country with good songs thrown in. We’ve also made a lot of records so we’re always trying to get a good feeling, a good sound. And we can play.’ Joe Creighton: ‘It’s an opportunity to plug directly into that source material, whether it’s John Lee Hooker or Muddy Waters or Doug Sahm. We approach roots music in the way jazz musicians play: we open it up and jam on it, we don’t play a song the same way every night.’ Joe Camilleri: ‘For me, it’s as simple as loving the people and loving what they do. Joe Creighton’s one of the best bass players in Australia and James is a world class musician too. He’s always looking for something inside a song.

  • Jo Jo Zep Brought Soul to Oz Rock and the Black Sorrows Did It Again” Rolling Stone Australia Jan 2017
    “Jo Jo Zep brought soul to Oz rock and The Black Sorrows did it again” Rolling Stone Australia Jan 2017 Formed in Melbourne in 1984 by Joe Camilleri, The Black Sorrows continue to be one of Australia’s most enduring touring bands, earning the reputation as a dynamic live act and festival favourite. Their musicianship and energy appeals to music fans everywhere. On stage, Joe steers the band through an infectious interplay of solid grooves that mixes blues, soul, old school R&B and gospel, with flashes of jazz, country and Brill Building pop. Recently awarded “Living Legend” status by Rolling Stone, Joe Camilleri has kicked a staggering number of goals during his 50+ years in music as a singer, songwriter, multi- talented musician and producer. Joe first came to prominence as leader of seminal 70’s band, Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons. Considered one of the most genuinely talented figures in Australian music, Joe was inducted into the ARIA Music Hall of Fame in 2007. The Black Sorrows have a legion of loyal fans throughout Australia and Europe. There have been hit records and multi-platinum albums and Joe’s songwriting skills are much in demand with greats, Elvis Costello and John Denver having recorded versions of his songs.
