The Marcus Hook Roll Band has released their one and only album, 1973's Tales of Old Grand-Daddy. The truth is, if MHRB had ever come out of the studio, played live, travelled the world, promoted their records, then the AC/DC phenomenon might never have gotten off the ground.
MHRB is one obscure, but significant, persona of the legendary partnership of Harry Vanda and George Young - The Easybeats, and later, Flash and the Pan). The recording was during July/August 1973 in Sydney. A key ingredient was the 'duty free' supplied by producer Alan 'Wally' Waller - Jim Beam Old Grand-Dad bourbon whiskey - hence the album name.
