About this album

Taught By Experts is a lively showcase for Peter Allen’s theatrical pop instincts, mixing disco, funk and easy-listening polish with sharp melodic writing. Issued in 1976, the album finds the Australian-born singer-songwriter leaning into rhythmic arrangements, glossy hooks and his gift for turning personal charm into performance. Best known for the exuberant ‘I Go To Rio’, it also features ‘(I’ve Been) Taught By Experts’, one of Allen’s signature self-aware show tunes, alongside material that moves easily between cabaret exuberance and radio-friendly pop. The record helped cement Allen’s reputation as a distinctive entertainer with a style that bridged mainstream pop and stagecraft.
