Starting his career as a hard rock singer, Australian legend Gary "Angry" Anderson successfully added actor, media star, and tireless charity worker to a lengthy resume.
First earning the nickname of "Angry Ant" due to his aggressive character, Anderson channeled his energy into the band Peace Power and Purity during 1971 and 1972. In 1973, he formed the boogie band Buster Brown and in 1976 joined Rose Tattoo. The anthemic hits "Bad Boy for Love" and "We Can't Be Beaten" became symbols for alienated youth and Rose Tattoo earned an international reputation as one of Australia's premier hard rock outfits.
Anderson began his acting career with a small role in Bullamakanka in 1985, followed by a more substantial role in Mad Max III: Beyond Thunderdome. Rose Tattoo's final album, Beats From a Single Drum originally began life as Angry Anderson's debut solo album until the introduction of American producer Kevin Beamish. The album was released in 1986 and produced the ballad "Suddenly" which peaked at number one on the Australian national charts in August 1987. Blood From a Stone was then re-released as a solo Angry Anderson album in 1988.
