Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Focusing on key elements surrounding a group that stands alongside legends such as Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and Led Zeppelin, this book reveals the phenomenon that is AC/DC. Covering past and present members, songs, gigs, events, albums, bootlegs, producers, and numerous other subjects, this exhaustive overview spans an extraordinary 35-year musical career—from the very earliest incarnations of the band prior to Bon Scott’s arrival, through the era in which he fronted the band and his untimely death, to the wildly successful landmark record Back in Black, all the way to their 2003 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and beyond. Detailing a group that has sold an estimated 150 million albums worldwide, this is the definitive reference of one of music history’s most notable pioneers of hard rock.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Read, November 26, 2008
By King Rocker (New York) - See all my reviews
I was a litle dubious when i spotted that yet another AC/DC book had been published, but i bought it anyway and was very pleasantly surprised. Firstly, this is very different to all the biographies on sale as it's an A-Z listing of just about everything connected to the band - but it also contains a lot of first hand interviews and direct quotes, the authors having interviewed most of the band members over the years many times it seems. This volume is now among my favourite 'DC books and i'd very much recommend giving it a try if you're also a fan of the group
