Alibi is the third studio album by Dutch hard rock band Vandenberg, released on 29 August 1985 by Atco Records. This was Vandenberg's final studio album for 35 years until their reunion in 2020.
It was recorded in the Netherlands; a first for a Vandenberg album. Following the previous album, Adrian Vandenberg painted cover art, and in 2007, 75 artwork graphs were released in commemoration of Adrian's individual painting exhibition, Stuck Between Rock and an Art Place, in Antwerp.[2]
Bert Heerink has since emphasized vocals in Alibi regarding the production of the record: "The two early albums say that for me, the production of the opening of the song seems to be emphasized."[3]
The cover art featured Mexican Maya civilization and crocodiles from the ground in the red sunset. Like its predecessor, its artwork was created by guitarist Adrian Vandenberg himself.
