Comments for Rose Tattoo, Rock 'n' Roll Outlaw

This is Rose Tattoo`s debut album originally released on Mirage/Atlantic Records in 1980 in the U.S. (Mirage WTG 19280).Band: Angry Anderson-vocals, Peter Wells-guitar/vocals, Dallas Digger Royall-drums, Geordie Leech-bass, Michael Cox-lead & rhythm guitarThis album contains the original version of `Nice Boys`, later done by Guns and Roses on their `GnR Lies` album.Look for Angry Anderson in the film `Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome`.

Killer album. Regarded in Australia as one of the seminal albums that defined the Australian pub rock sound. Genuinely terrifying band live (back in the days when the only people who wore tatts were real outlaws). A band that took on Australian pub crowds head on and slaughtered everything in their path. Razor sharp delivery of a savage wall of sound. Think Chuck Berry, Stones on speed and angry backed by a slide guitar. Their likes never to be seen again.
