Following the death of the group’s drummer, Steve Prestwich in 2011, Jimmy Barnes and company regrouped for their first new compositions in over 13 years. The album includes two new tracks, "All For You" and "HQ454 Monroe" and 18 greatest hits. The greatest hits tracks were chosen by their fans who voted for their favourites on their website.

The album’s full track listing was announced on their website on 25 September.[5]

Reviews

Anna-Maria Megalogenis from The AU Review gave the album 9/10, saying: "It is apparent that Cold Chisel produced some damn good Aussie pub rock songs, rich with lyrical imagery (penned mostly by keyboardist Don Walker), easy to sing along to and songs tinged with melancholia". She added, "Words fail to capture how damn good this album is".[6]

Jon O'Brien from All Music said; "The Adelaide quintet's tales of excess have often overshadowed their musical output, but "All for You" is a labor of love proving that they deserve their legendary status.[7]
