==Background==
This album was promoted by a nationwide tour titled, "The Chain Reaction Tour," which provided a televised performance at Flinders Park National Tennis Centre in [[Melbourne]] in 1990. This performance aired on Australia's Channel Seven, and was released shortly after as a VHS video cassette. This cassette was re-released as a [[Chain Reaction Live In Concert|DVD]] on 13 November 2005.

[[John Farnham]] was keen to change his sound on ''Chain Reaction'' from his previous two studio albums ''[[Whispering Jack]]'' (October 1986) and ''[[Age of Reason (album)|Age of Reason]]'' (July 1988). Consequently he enlisted the song writing help of [[Southern Sons]]' guitarist Phil Buckle, producer Ross Fraser and former band mate and keyboardist [[David Hirschfelder]]: nine of the twelve songs on the album are co-written by Farnham. Doug Brady was brought in as audio engineer, whose daughter was born during recording sessions: her photo is in the centre of the front cover.<ref name="book">{{cite book |last=Gazzo |first=Jane |date=15 November 2015 |title=John Farnham: The Untold Story |publisher=Ebury Press |isbn=9780857986573 }}</ref>

==Significance to Australians==
| headline = ''Chain Reaction'' (VPCD 0830, PD 74768)
More than 20 years after the album's initial release, ''Chain Reaction'' is considered one of Farnham's best works. It also received much praise from critics at the time, even though many of the songs on this album have serious lyrics. "See The Banners Fall", "That's Freedom" and "Chain Reaction" were all delivering a similar message: the world is changing, whether Australians (or anyone in the West, for that matter) like it or not. In addition, "See the Banners Fall" is an accurate depiction of the world at the time, and "Chain Reaction" alludes in part by the globalisation that was (eventually) caused by the break-up of the Soviet Union. Many Australians consider "That's Freedom" and "In Days to come" as symbols of the urgency for the world to wake up and solve the world's problems. This may be the reason why ''Chain Reaction'' (both the single and the album) was a commercial success.

Background

John Farnham was keen to change his sound on Chain Reaction from his previous two studio albums Whispering Jack (October 1986) and Age of Reason (July 1988). Consequently he enlisted the song writing help of Southern Sons' guitarist Phil Buckle, producer Ross Fraser and former band mate and keyboardist David Hirschfelder: nine of the twelve songs on the album are co-written by Farnham. Doug Brady was brought in as audio engineer, whose daughter was born during recording sessions: her photo is in the centre of the front cover.[3]

Farnham chose to launch Chain Reaction at the New South Wales Rugby League Grand Final at Sydney Football Stadium on 23 September as part of its pre-game entertainment.[4] His set included the debut live performance of its second single, "That's Freedom".[4]
