AC/DC is my favourite heavy metal group.
AC/DC are a hard rock band formed in Sydney, Australia in 1973 by brothers Angus and Malcolm Young.
The band are considered pioneers of heavy metal,alongside bands such as Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath. Its members, however, have always classified their music as "rock 'n' roll".
November 1973, Malcolm and Angus Young formed AC/DC and recruited bassist Larry Van Kriedt, vocalist Dave Evans, and Colin Burgess, ex-Master's Apprentices drummer.[22] The band played their first gig at a club named Chequers in Sydney on New Year's Eve, 1973.They were later signed to the EMI-distributed Albert Productions label for Australia and New Zealand. The early line-up of the band changed often; Colin Burgess was the first member fired, and several bassists and drummers passed through the band during the next year
What really opened the doors to success was Highway to Hell (1979), produced by Mutt Lange, for many the best album of Australians and reached the post 17 th in the American lists and 8 th in the UK, becoming its first job in getting one million copies sold. This album is on the list of 500 albums indispensable compiled by Rolling Stone magazine. The main theme of the LP, the song Highway to Hell, it eventually turned around for many a hymn of Rock and Roll at the end of the 70.
And, the Indeed the worst in the history of AC/DC, is the die of Bon Scott, the vocalist of the group, in 1980, 19 february.
The death of Scott was drowning in his own vomit to falling asleep in his car in the garage of his home as a result of an alcohol.
AC / DC recruit Brian Johnson, it accepted the challenge and came to the class to record what would be one of the greatest albums of the 1980's: Back In Black, a disc devoted to Bon Scott, who was one of the LP sold more of the story, along with Thriller, Michael Jakcson.
Its the best Group of the world.
