Synopsis | Rock 'n' Recovery (2024)
Aussie rock icon Jimmy Barnes has lived his life fast and hard. He is the first to admit he has done plenty of things that haven’t been conducive to longevity. But that’s not the reason he’s so thankful, and lucky, to be alive today. Late last year Barnesy was struck down with an infection in his blood that spread to his heart. He was rushed to hospital where doctors gave him grim news. He was close to death and emergency open-heart surgery was his only option. It was touch and go for a while, and there was more screaming in pain than screaming out hits, but as Nine’s Sylvia Jeffreys reports, Jimmy is now out of danger and can’t wait to get back on stage.
