One of the music industries unsung hero's, Australian music mogul, Ted Albert of his family record company of the same name, Albert Productions silently shines in this 2 part documentary.

With the help of the musical prodigies of the Young family and "Uncle" Harry Vanda, Ted Albert helps create the raw australian guitar sound that took over the world.

AC/DC, The Angels, Rose Tattoo had their live raw guitar energy camptured by Vanda & Youngs on vinyl. Their sound went on to inspire a whole new genre of bands like Guns & Roses, Foo Figters, Nirvana, Def Leppard.

This documentary also shows how important touring small intimate pub venues where to giving Australia its unique sound.

Ted Albert, Vanda & Young also understood that it was the punters who khow where the next big hits really are and what is going to be the next big sound.

While this documentary does not give a complete picture of what makes Australian music unique, it comes pretty darn close.
