Paul Kelly – Time @ The Princess Theatre | Brisbane

Over a two year period, Australia’s favourite troubador released a series of themed compilations. Time is the first. These albums see him draw from his vast catalogue and trove of unreleased recordings.

Paul Kelly’s songs dig deep into Australia: how it feels, looks, tastes, sounds.

“We kill time, we waste time, we do time, we use time, we find time, we lose time, we race time, we hate time. Time keeps ticking – a heartbeat, a bomb, a spur. Time doesn’t wait, nor does it hurry. It moves too slow for lovers apart, for lovers together too fast…we play songs in praise of, in spite of and in the shadow of time.” -Paul Kelly
