The video where they are doing the Australian version of American Bandstand and the girls dancing around them is maybe one of the best videos on youtube. Prefer it over the one where they are on the back of the truck by quite a bit. It's been remastered now, and the video is called "It's a Long way to the Top" Promo Clip

Glad to see the younger generations appreciating the great musicians of my era.

First rule of AC/DC - never, never, never interrupt an Angus Young guitar solo.

In our day, it wasn't a party unless ACDC was playing

The 'noose' that you saw in the Thunderstruck video from River Plate is a foot rest for Brian Johnson at the beginning of this song. He stands in it swinging, ringing the bell... do yourself a favor and watch the River Plate version of this song and 'Highway to Hell'... you'll love it!!!

Back in Black is a must from AC/DC

I grew up in this era. We didn't take the music and culture for granted but it never occurred to us that it wouldn't last forever. In hindsight, this was the tail end of a multi-decade long era; a golden era in music 1940-1990. We knew music would change but thought it would just morph into something equally good ..... but it didn't. I feel very fortunate to have come of age in the 70s/80s.

@@emptyemptiness8372 The mid 40s is when the real/original R&B music started to get converted to rock with heavier sustained notes and bent strings by the likes of Chuck Berry, John Lee Hooker, and BB King, as the Boogie Woogies, B Bops, Gospel and Blue Grass was getting pushed aside in New Orleans, the mid 40s to mid 50s were more of a Rocking Blues era. Not exactly Rock, not exactly Blues. I would start Rock and Roll a couple of years earlier in the 50s, and add a couple of extra years in the 90s until it briefly changed to Grunge which only lasted 5 years and completely destroyed R&R as we loved it and for some strange reason it completely disappeared for the last 20 years, somehow replaced by Swift, Miley, Kylie, Diddy, M&M, Bieber, and all sorts of other manufactured no talent rubbish. Thank god Rock is being rediscovered, but will it ever go back to the glory days? I really hope it does.

If you listen to the whole album, your hair will grow longer and you just randomly flip off people that listen to pop. You just lose control of certain things.😊

The one thing that people either don't know or frequently forget is that AC/DC is, like Aerosmith, a blues band. Yeah, they've got everything cranked up to 15, the drums hit harder, the guitars scream louder, and there's more gravel in the singer's voice (regardless of which singer it is), but music is just down and dirty, nitty gritty blues.

Skipped school to go to my friend's house to listen to this album, Back in Black. No way would my parents allow me to own an AC/DC album. I've never regretted that day. So pleased you wish music like this was still being made today.

The song Back In Black is basically Gangsta Rock. For real. Every song on the album is a banger, every single one!

Whenever I am feeling depressed, run down, incompetent, ect.......This album will rise you up. Make you feel better, make you walk and talk better, make you shoot pool better, and make the drive better. Just so many betters,....you have no choice but to rock you head, tap your foot, and feel that combination of Young, Rudd and Williams run down your spine. It is naturally invigorating and inspiring. A true tribute to Bon.

Back in Black

You Shook Me All Night Long by AC/DC is a classic! 🔥

THE WHOLE ALBUM IS BANGER< BANGER

ACDC started out in the 70s. I was in high school and graduated 79, they were definitely doing concerts in the 70s

I'm an Aussie, born & raised on this music, I'm eternally grateful that my folks never gave into "music bad" hype that hit the 80's. They loved rock, they loved Aussie Rock more and I grew up listening to all of it; music will never be the same.

My daughter says the same thing she was born in the wrong era. She was born 94. I was in my 20’s in the 80’s and we had killer music.

The bell that they ordered for the tour of this album, Back in Black, is a fittingly sized 13 ton church bell made especially for them by bell-makers in London, England. The bell is the largest musical instrument ever used in a rock concert, and has become a staple and icon of the AC/DC tour. The bell rings an iconic 13 times in the song, with the feeling of the song meant as a hard rock send off for their lost brother Bon Scott. RIP Bon! Your music has NEVER died!

This gets EVERYONE jacked up, whether they admit it or not. Best hype music ever.

Time for a chat with your dad, Cliff! I'm sure he could point you to some great bands and music. So glad your giving the music that charted my youth a listen. Just hits so different!

For those about to rock (we salute you) I'm an 85 baby, so I never saw this live, but my parents told me stories about them using cannons in their performances for this song....wild...and a great song

In 1980, I was 18 in growing up in Southern California driving a blue 1970 Ford Torino GT with a 351 Cleveland, cowl induction, Holley 4 barrel, police suspension, etc. with the music of time blowing out my Jensen speakers…life was good…respect…

AC/DC - One of the best bands to come out of Australia 🇦🇺. Whole Lotta Rosie from the 2009 Riverplate concert. I really think you'd love that one...😂

AC/DC’s beloved lead singer, Bon Scott, had recently died, and they almost quit. However, they brought In Brian Johnson and came out with Hells Bells, a tribute to their friend, Ronald Belford Scott, taken way too soon. You should check out Bon’s AC/DC next-Highway to Hell is full of bangers. The first time I heard them, I was 15, hearing “Girl’s Got Rhythm” at the local roller skating rink. That would be a great one to start with.

AC/DC ❤💪

welcome to our childhood and welcome to the AC/DC Rabbit hole!!! enjoy the trip Whole lotta of Rosie live a river plate 2009 is definitely worth the time

If not on video, listen to yourself AC/DC "Big Balls". There's a double for you. And that's still Bon Scott on lyrics. "Back in Black" was the first album since his death, so first for Brian on the vocals.

U need to hear Bon Scott, he was original lead singer but passed away. Dirty Deeds, For Those About to Rock, TNT are personal favorites

Seen them live black in black tour... amazing

Hells bells is the greatest opening track from any album of all time

ACDC played with very little distortion, so it sounded good on any sound system....so it got cranked constantly. And yes, Firebirds were everywhere. Trans Ams and Camaros. This music was blared out in every parking lot. The school, the mall, the gas stations.....it was hang out music.

Love how you are going back to classics 🎉❤

AC/DC never fails to perk me up, they are my favourite rock band, must be because I'm an Aussie, but yeah I love AC/DC.

I got lucky, I was in High School in the 80's, gun rack in the truck with a loaded hunting rifle, cassette player and tunes rocking on the way to school...live concerts...the best of times were the 80's...great times....you gotta remember at the same exact time we had 2live crew, Hip hop at its beginnings, I played it all...even 70's, Boston, Journey...Beastie boys, madonna...the 80's had it all man.

ACDC's whole catalogue is like this...50 odd years of it and not a ballad in sight.

Haha. 1983 in a restored 1965 Mercury Comet, glasspacks, split exhaust, rolling into the high school parking lot or cruising the boulevard. AC/DC Back in Black was our school song. It even sounded bada$$ when the HS band played it (electric guitar accompanying). Completely different world.

I'm so grateful I grew up in the 80's. REAL LIVE BANDS and some crazy talented musicians... and in the 80's there were tons.

That my friend is pure rock ‘n’ roll! This is the stuff that blows the speakers in your car!

Saw AC/DC in February 1982 in Denver and they opened the show with this song. Greatest 1st concert you can have.

I saw these guys rehearse back in the day. One of the tightest bands I've ever witnessed. I learned to play guitar back in the 80s thanks to Angus and Mal (RIP). You can't really go wrong with these guys. Hard rock! This is all they do. Should add, considering the depth of their catalog, also the most consistent band ever.

Cliff, "Big Balls" is goofy but it's hilarious lol. #acdc

FYI That bronze bell was specifically made for AC/DC. They tried to record a bell already in a belfry. They did not have satisfactory results with the equipment back then. A bellmaker was commissioned to make one exclusively for the band.

I would kill to see your reaction to "Big Balls"!

This was the album after their original lead singer died. Everyone thought that AC/DC would end, but then along came Brian Johnson and a whole new era started. I started listening to AC/DC as a teen in 1976

You explained it perfectly. I was that kid with a mullet cruising down a back road in rural Maine cranking this shit! I wish I was hearing this for the first time.

Seen them multiple times in concert.

I was born in the ULTIMATE era.... Born in '52, was 12 when the Beatles debuted on Ed Sullivan.... Was 17 the Summer of '69/Summer of Love and graduated HS in '70. I've been there for it ALL. And am so damn thankful for it! I'm 72 , growing older, but not up! When does this grown-up thing kick in?

You mentioned AC/DC gets you "jacked up." Well, if you really want to get jacked up, check out She's Got The Jack. Its a very wholesome song about a woman who obtains a jack to lift her car so she can change a tire.😅

Me 1980: in Ohio. Junior in HS. Getting out of school and CRANKING this song as I peeled out of the parking lot. You’re right it was amazing!

You hit the nail on the head. Mustang and Mullet = Business in the Front but Party in the Back. That's how we did things in the 1980s

The story goes that the band went to the Bahamas to write new songs but the singer had no idea what to write about. Suddenly, there was a tropical storm with very loud thunder and the singer was like _"Man, this sounds like Hell's bells!"_ and this was the inspiration of this song's lyrics.

The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Queen, Black Sabbath, The Eagles, and AC/DC were all awesome.

We didnt care about what they were wearing so long as the band is good. We were there for the music!!

You absolutely nailed the feeling of the song with the Camaro or Firebird and the Jean jacket or the leather jacket just giving it hell flying not giving a shit about anything ready for anything. It was such a time and feeling of freedom. Go out cruise around and smoke a joint to this Andreas jam! Life was good!

The 80s were theee best!!! Every rocker/ stoner and burnout knows this sing as soon as those bells ring!! 🔔 🔔 🎶 🎵 😊😊

Anything from River Plate is a must-watch. The crowd shots are insane. Besides the usual suggestions below, you'll love "Whole Lotta Rosie". Welcome to our era of music - it cannot be topped. Great reaction!

Cliff….. You should 100% do a full album reaction to Back In Black. One of the greatest rock albums EVER made. And the song order on that album is phenomenal!! Let’s go!

Fun fact. When they were starting out in the 70s they would do a live night gig in Sydney then go straight to the recording studio and record what they had just played. The theory was that this would help to capture the energy of a live performance in a studio recording. Seemed to work.

My daughter learnt to headbang at 6mths from me listening to accadacca ,rock on Perth Australia 🤟🇦🇺

When you listen to AC/DC, please imagine how hyped the skating rink was back then. The drive there and back also.

And oh yeah, I remember driving my Cutlass Supreme, windows down, music cranked, friends hanging out the windows, singing at the top of our lungs. LOL We had a lot more freedom in those days, at least where I grew up.

Yes , More Please 😁 "Back in Black" & "Big Balls" .... Much love to ya ❤

The album Back in Black was the second most sold album in the 80s they were only beat by Michael Jackson's Thriller

Back in Black was the first studio album AC DC release after the original lead song Bon Scott passed away .

Long way to the top if you wanna rock n roll.... classic AC/DC

What you described about driving to and from school jamming this is exactly what I did with me and my friends and especially junior year went to JVS and I drove a 63 Ford galaxy that we’ll see about 14 comfortably. We would burn down all the way to school. I got kicked out twice that year. Ended up going back to my home school the next year but we listen to a lot of AC/DC and Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and Boston and we had a good time, my mom wasn’t very happy with me during those days but I was having a good time. Thank God my son didn’t grow up like me.

Shout out from across the lake in Chesterton Indiana. The 80's were an amazing time to grow up. You just described my teenage years. ❤ 🤘 💀 🤘

This reminds me of high school with friends cruising in a friends camaro or other late 60s car listening to AC/DC, Cheap Trick, Styxx passing a left hander or pipe around.

Saw them in concert 2 times, amazing group. I graduated in 96... for my 22 birthday my dad got us tickets to their concert. He was a 83 guy so he did exactly as you said.

Great tribute to their lead singer for 6 years the fabulous Bon Scott

When you live in a fish bowl (The Chicago inner city as you describe it) your experiences are severely limited. It's only when someone gets a net and drops you into a river that you start to see what you couldn't before. Then when that river empties into the ocean, you really see what you couldn't before. There is so much waiting on KZread for you to discover. Enjoy the temporal travel, not just the lateral genre journey. Today's music in a given genre is not the same as it was 50 years ago. Each generation stands on the shoulders of the previous generation. Sometimes for the better, sometimes not (honestly, mostly not). When you get tired of the harder side of the '70s, you can check out a milder side with Chicago and E.L.O. both have masterful vocals and instrumentals (Both are fullish orchestras).

15 year old me was blown away by this album when it came out in 1980.

"I don't even live in Indiana." I subscribed because of that one line.

my girlfriend (dj) and I (ran the lighting system) for a decent sized rock and roll club and went to a lot of concerts together back in the day. AC/DC songs were some of the most requested songs we got at that time. saw AC/DC live in 81 or 82. they were the only band we ever saw that after leaving the concert, neither of us could hear for 3 days, lol. oh, the memories!

You want to know where this music is today? Two words. Lizzy Hale of “Halestorm”. I miss the misery and Freak like me should be experienced. All their music is amazing.

When Angus's hat comes off, that's when you know there's about to be a thunderstorm of guitar licks! 🤘🏽

I saw AC/DC a good 5 or 6 times in the 70s & 80s, wouldn't trade that in for anything. But as far as your "born in the wrong era" thing, today I WOULD be glad to trade birthdays with you.
