The big life of one of Australia's best loved larrikins. Born James Swan to a prize-fighting father and stoic mother - we follow his journey from Glasgow to Adelaide, to a new name, and a calling to sing... that became the soundtrack to a nation's lives. Jimmy Barnes is a creative powerhouse, iconic live performer and legendary hell-raiser. With the most number No.1 albums in Australia; it's been hit after hit for 40 years, and he's still somehow alive to tell the tale.
