 Powderfinger - Fingerprints & Footprints: The Ultimate Collection (Universal) 

Powderfinger - Fingerprints & Footprints: The Ultimate Collection (Universal)

THEY left us in a blaze of glory including a huge ‘big-top’ show in Albury just over a year ago.

And a new tell-all book is set to reveal the tensions between band members as a chapter in Aussie rock closed for good.

Footprints is for those having Powderfinger withdrawals.

The sequel to 2004’s collection Fingerprints, also included here as a 2-disc set, Footprints takes in the Finger’s career post-2001.

And while Fingerprints had arguably bigger hits (Passenger, These Days, My Happiness), Footprints holds its own as the band became legendary.

Live faves All Of The Dreamers, Burn Your Name, Lost And Running and the rockin’ On My Mind headline the set while the bluesy Since You’ve Been Gone is a highlight and Sunsets is even more poignant with Bernie and the boys gone.

New tunes Empty Space and Silver Bullet are worthy additions.

RATING: ★★★★

IN SHORT: Great impressions
