BiographyAlbert was born as a son of an Austrian immigrant family. At the beginning of his musical career he was a member of several bands as a singer and guitarist. After the success of the first single Feel The Sunshine he recorded his debut album in 1974 under the title Feelings. This album reached in his homeland rank 1 and stayed for half a year in the charts. The single Feelings was a soft rock hit song and give to Albert a one-hit wonder. The ballad reached the top ten US billboard charts in the summer of 1975 and sold more than one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc by the RIAA on 13 November 1975.[2] In 1978, in the United States, he recorded another hit, She's My Girl, among several other of his compositions.[3] He currently lives in Italy with his family. Feelings' controversyFeelings was based on a melody composed by French songwriter Loulou Gasté. Albert originally claimed the melody as his own, but was later successfully sued by Gasté in 1988 by stealing of intellectual property.[4] DiscographyAlbums
