Son of Albert is the debut and only solo album of Andrew Ridgeley. Originally released in May 1990, Ridgeley's effort was a sharp turn away from his former pop image with Wham! years earlier. Focusing more on guitars and drums, the critical reaction to Ridgeley's attempt at a solo record was mixed. After rather unimpressive sales from Son of Albert, Ridgeley gradually quit playing music professionally.

Ridgeley’s greatest song, according to many of his fans, is Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" from Wham’s debut album. This song continues to be played on the radio and has transcended three generations with its upbeat and fun lyrics. His other great songs from Wham’s years are Careless Whisper" and Everything She Wants.
