"One of the boys"🌹 ROSE TATTOO @ Sooki Lounge, Belgrave 13/3/2026

Rose Tattoo were formed in Sydney in 1976 with Leigh Johnston on rhythm guitar and Tony Lake on lead vocals; they were led by slide guitarist Peter Wells who had departed as bass guitarist of heavy metal band Buffalo. Drummer Michael Vandersluys completed the line-up. Ian Rilen from Band of Light joined on bass guitar. Their talent manager, Sebastian Chase, who had managed both Band of Light and Buffalo, recommended Rilen to Wells. Rilen had taught himself to play while in prison and gave Wells' band the street-cred he was looking for. Rhythm guitarist Mick Cocks soon replaced Johnston; Lake and Vandersluys were replaced by former Buster Brown members Angry Anderson and Dallas "Digger" Royall, respectively. Melbourne-based Buster Brown had played at the 1974 Sunbury Festival and had included future AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd. Rose Tattoo had an early performance on New Year's Eve at the local rock club Chequers. Chiefly inspired by the Rolling Stones, Faces and Billy Thorpe and his 1970s Aztecs, Rose Tattoo's hard-rocking sound quickly earned a following in the Sydney area. Members of AC/DC were fans and recommended them to their label, Albert Productions. The band's debut, single "Bad Boy for Love", was written by Rilen, who left to form punk rock group X (not the L.A. band) prior to its release in October 1977. "Bad Boy for Love" was produced by Vanda & Young (formerly of the Easybeats, AC/DC's producers) and peaked at No. 19 on the Australian Kent Music Report Singles Chart. Initially Cocks switched to bass guitar to cover Rilen's departure, then Chris Turner (ex-Buffalo) joined on bass guitar. The band toured nationally on the pub rock circuit competing with the Angels, Cold Chisel, Dragon and Kevin Borich Express.
