Other Notes:
"We do many 'instores' while touring around this fine globe and this time we decided to do something a little different. The idea was to capture a selection of songs, not as a band but solo and if we were lucky maybe have a live album at the end of it. So this is the first solo album I've released…well other than my old busking tape. It's live, warts n'all but it's a moment in time I enjoyed and am proud to share with ya'll. It's also a great pleasure to be collaborating with Oxfam and many other NGOs to continue to bring attention to the CLOSE THE GAP campaign. Check it out and get involved. peace, JB"

"Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people die on average 17-years younger than other Australians. With an average life expectancy for Aboriginal men at 59 years of age, an Aboriginal boy born today can expect to have a shorter life than a boy born in Bangladesh."
"Australia-wide however Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander communities are taking action to improve the health and wellbeing of their own people through successful Indigenous run health services. With adequate government funding and long-term commitment these successful programs could be extended to other Aboriginal communities."
"Australians around the country have called for an end to the 17-year life expectancy gap within a generation. It is a challenge we can meet. It is time to close the gap."
