So, Jeff, can you talk a little about George Young and his early relationship with Harry Vanda while staying at the Villawood migrant hostel? [00:01:04] George Young and his family. He was one of 10, came to Australia in nineteen sixty three. They were part of what we now know, known as the ten pound POM scheme. And they've been hoping they've been invited basically over to the sunny side of Australia. And they ended up in the Villawood Migrant Hostel, which was not the most hospitable place then or now. But George one day was walking around the hostel and he heard a sound coming from the laundry room.

  • THE SOUND of ALBERTS BLOOD - Thursday, June 25 at 8.30Pm on ABC
    Premiering Thursday, June 25 at 8.30pm on ABC This two-part documentary takes viewers back to the '60s and '70s and charts how Australia got its own rock & roll sound thanks to a life-long bond between two families: the music company Alberts and the Youngs, an immigrant family from Glasgow. Together, they created a sound that would become an inspiration to millions of music fans around the world. Though very different on the surface, the families were similar where it mattered – a love of music, a refusal to blow one’s own trumpet, and a determination to succeed. Their bond was the blood of two families, and the thunder was the sound they produced. It's a story of incredible accomplishments, and some devastating losses, such as the death of Bon Scott. And it all started at the legendary Alberts Studios. BLOOD + THUNDER: THE SOUND OF ALBERTS BLOOD - Thursday, June 25 at 8.30pm on ABC When the unassuming Ted Albert finds musical genius within Australia’s migrant families in the '60s – Billy Thorpe, The Easybeats, others – he’s sure they can create music that will impress the world. He’s right, especially due to the Young clan from Glasgow. Australia goes nuts over the homegrown sounds. Born into the music dynasty J Albert & Son, Ted joins the board in 1962, aged 25, and is determined to create an Australian sound. His first signing is Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs and it’s their hit Poison Ivy that’s at the top of the charts when The Beatles tour the country in 1964 – an extraordinary achievement.

  • PART TWO: THUNDER Thursday, July 2 at 8.30Pm On
    PART TWO: THUNDER Thursday, July 2 at 8.30pm on ABC Blood +Thunder is a tale of two families and the music they made. The Alberts - an elegant, well-to-do dynasty from the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, and the Youngs – an unruly clan of ten-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. If you ask Metallica, Guns 'N Roses, Suzi Quatro or The Foo Fighters today about Australian music, they remember the Alberts sound. That fat guitar, raw power that came from the Alberts studios and the records of The Easybeats, Rose Tattoo and AC/DC. It was the sound that killed the cultural cringe – tough, raw and unapologetic. Tonight, the story continues with part two - THUNDER By the mid ’70s Australia was in a deep recession, and many young Australians turned to rock music for their escape. The unassuming Ted Albert and songwriters/producers George Young and Harry Vanda, formerly of The Easybeats, take a cue from the beginnings of pub rock, and develop the sound that the audience was responding to in tough suburban pubs. George’s little brothers Angus and Malcolm step up and AC/DC is born – the name taken from older sister Margaret’s sewing machine. When the charismatic Bon Scott joins as lead singer the band’s popularity explodes, helped by relentless touring. When The Angels share the AC/DC stage, they too promptly sign with Alberts and start clocking up successes helped by the arrival of colour television and Countdown.
