Southern Stars is the fourth studio album by Australian hard rock band Rose Tattoo. The album was recorded with Angry Anderson on lead vocals, Geordie Leach on bass guitar and new members Greg Jordan on slide and lead guitars, John Meyer on guitar and Scott Johnston on drums. It peaked at No. 30 on the Kent Music Report albums chart.Southern Stars, with production by Vanda & Young, had the band moving towards a more AOR style, while retaining their hard rock, boogie blues style. Its lead single "I Wish" reached No. 32 on the Australian singles chart. It was followed by the singles, "Freedom's Flame" and "No Secrets". Rose Tattoo toured Australia in support of the album and it was well received, but by late 1985, Anderson put the band into a year-long hiatus due to his acting commitments. It was the last Rose Tattoo album, which was produced by Harry Vanda and George Young.Southern Stars is available as a limited edition of 750 individually numbered copies on turquoise & blue swirled coloured vinyl
