Albert Anderson (born October 11, 1952)[1] is an American-born songwriter and guitarist.
Anderson grew up in Montclair, New Jersey and attended Montclair High School where he learned to play the trombone, eventually picking up guitar and bass guitar. He attended the Berklee College of Music contemporaneously with Pat Metheny and Al Di Meola after working with an early version of the band Aerosmith in the Boston music scene.[1]
He joined The Centurions bringing him to the attention of Chris Wood of Traffic, who invited him to play on the band's next album.[1] Being on the Traffic album never materialized, but the interaction led to Anderson becoming employed by Traffic's record label Island Records, leading to him being asked to play lead guitar on Bob Marley & The Wailers' Natty Dread sessions.[1]
