30:30 Hindsight is an album by Jimmy Barnes that celebrates 30 years since his chart-topping debut solo album, Bodyswerve in September 1984. It was released in August 2014 and debuted at number 1 in Australia, giving Barnes his tenth solo number 1 album.
Barnes performed "I'd Die to Be with You Tonight" live with Diesel on The X Factor on 25 August.
Barnes said of the album: "We've actually kicked some new life into the songs, I think when people hear this new record, they will get a sense that these are very modern takes on these songs. They sound fresh and they sound new and they sound alive."
Paul Stewart of the Daily Express wrote, "This is definitely a toe-tapping modern rock album with great ebb and flow and is certainly well worth a listen." Dan Lander of Rolling Stone wrote, "Barnes' voice has lost none of its bite, and he genuinely sounds like he’s ecstatic to be putting fresh life into this collection of old favourites."
The two-disc, 30 track release contains 17 new recordings and 13 classic Jimmy Barnes hits spanning his solo career.
The three-disc, 40 track edition contains 17 new recordings as well as 23 singles from across Barnes's solo career.
