  • Unveiling Rock Revolution: How Albert Productions Shattered Norms and Redefined Music!
    During the decades spanning the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, Albert Productions emerged as an influential powerhouse in Australia, reshaping the very fabric of Australian pop music.
    Guided by Ted Albert and the collaborative efforts of songwriters/producers Harry Vanda and George Young, Alberts fostered a collective of artists including Billy Thorpe, The Easybeats, Stevie Wright, AC/DC, Rose Tattoo, The Angels, John Paul Young, TMG, and more.
    This assembly dominated the music charts, garnering global recognition. Yet, their music wasn't always gentle. The Alberts' guitar resonance mimicked the pulsating vigor of a V8 engine, echoing the resilient migrant neighborhoods from which it originated.
    It exuded an air of defiance, embodying the spirit of Australia's audacious and electrifying suburban youth. It encapsulated the vibrant essence of blue-collar revelry.

    The particular flavours that Vanda and Young added to so many good bands-not the least is AC/DC-was what created a particular sonic that all rockin' Australians know. The Angel's muted guitar was probably the greatest of all the 'Australian sounds' we were being fed.
    I've heard it said that what music you love as a 15 year old boy is the music you will love all your life. With a passion. One can't escape that love even if one tried.

    Growing up Australian in the ‘60’s, ‘70’s and ‘80’s was a gift. We were so blessed to have our own world class local music scene.. while also being tuned in to both the UK and US charts. Our whole world revolved around music. But, at the centre of our country, the spirit and the heart, is a big, red rock named Uluru, and rock we do.

      We recorded an album at this studio with Steve Albini.Not that it helped our career much but still.
      Steve absolutely loves ACDC.
      So Mick says to Steve "well you might be a bit interested that those speakers there are from Alberts Studio" Well Steve sure was and so were all of us.
      Strangely enough such icons were not set up as control room monitors.
      They were just in the recording room as monitors to chat to the band on if i have it right.I guess while they have their history,age and technology has come a long way surpassing them.

AC/DC is my favorite band in the world, and I love the Bon Scott era, Vanda and Young produced records, but sorry, Rose Tattoo doesn't do it for me. I like other bands like UFO and some of the harder NWOBHM stuff, but I grew up hearing that stuff since I was born in 1970. Vanda and Young were brilliant producers, and Harry seems like a great guy.
