Blood and Thunder: The Sound of Alberts

This is the story of Bogan Motown. The family-owned label Alberts was Australia’s hit-factory who ruled the charts and gave us our own soundtrack: the sound of rebellion and good times, suburban young Australia at full-bore. The Easybeats, John Paul Young, Stevie Wright, The Angels, Rose Tattoo, AC/DC - these were the Alberts artists who sang us our song and cracked the cultural cringe. Blood and Thunder is a tale of two families and the music they made. The Alberts - an elegant, well-to-do dynasty. And The Youngs - an unruly clan of 10-pound migrants from the tough suburbs of Glasgow. They were from different planets. But through music they locked together in a blood pact - fiercely determined to produce an Australian sound that would conquer the world. (Beyond Home Entertainment)
