Joe Camilleri has released the very personal ‘Saint Georges Road’, the title track from The Black Sorrows’ latest album, as the fourth single from the album.
The video was created by Melbourne director Ian Ritter.
‘St George’s Road’ is about the passing of Joe’s brother Tony. Joe tells Noise11.com, “I had to play that afternoon. It turned out to be a really joyous afternoon because I ended up playing a song that he always wanted me to play. He loved ‘Teenage Wedding’ (You Never Can Tell) by Chuck Berry. I remember playing it at the Sunday afternoon gig, told my story and it was a rocking version of the song. ‘St Georges Road’ talks a lot about that. “Raise a glass or three for our true lost friends”. We have all been through it. We have all had to deal with it. Some people deal with it quicker than others, some people never get over it. I am one of 10 and the unbreakable chain has been broken”.
The Black Sorrows will perform at One Electric Day in Werribee this Sunday and then tour though to at least April with Bluesfest dates over the Easter weekend.
