'''''Southern Stars''''' is the fourth [[studio album]] by Australian [[hard rock]] band [[Rose Tattoo]]. The album was released in October 1984 and peaked at number 30 in the [[Kent Music Report]]. It was the last [[Rose Tattoo]] album to be produced by Harry Vanda & George Young.

''Southern Stars'', with a slick production by [[Vanda & Young]], had the band moving in a more AOR style, but retaining their famous Rock/boogie style. The album was essentially made with [[Angry Anderson]] and '''Geordie Leach''' on bass guitar, and new members Greg Jordon (slide/lead guitar), John Meyer (guitar) and Scott Johnston (drums). The album includes their Australian hit single ''I Wish''. Rose Tattoo toured Australia upon the release of the album and the album was well received, but by late 1985, [[Angry Anderson]] had put the band into a hiatus due to acting commitments. It was the last [[Rose Tattoo]] album to be produced by Harry Vanda & George Young.
