ABC Australia To Air "Blood & Thunder," Alberts Documentary on June 25th

June 19, 2015

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 - Thursday, June 25 at 8.30pm on ABC
THUNDER - Thursday, July 2 at 8.30pm on ABC
