Description:
The headline said it all: AC/DC signs up a 'plain' singer. After all, what could the boys from Australia do after tragically losing Bon Scott, one of the greatest front men of all time? They needed to start fresh and that's exactly what they did. With new singer Brian Johnson, AC/DC set out to prove that they still had it and ended up crafting a tribute to their late friend and coincidentally one of the biggest albums of all time.

"In the middle of album rehearsals, singer Bon Scott went on a drinking spree; he choked on his own vomit and was found dead in the back seat of a car. After two days of mourning, guitarist Malcolm Young thought, "Well, f**k this, I'm not gonna sit around mopin' all f**kin' year." He called his brother, guitarist Angus Young, and they went back to work with replacement vocalist Brian Johnson. The resulting album has the relentless logic of a sledgehammer. Back in Black might be the purest distillation of hard rock ever: The title track, "Hells Bells" and "You Shook Me All Night Long" have all become enduring anthems of strutting blues-based guitar". - www.rollingstone.com
