Posted 20/08/2006 12:13:36 AM | | Back in Black....one of the greatest rock albums of all time....this album was released on July 21,1980 not too long after the death of bon scott on febuary 19,1980....bon scott was ac/dc's singer from 1973 to early 1980....after bon died the band was thinking of calling of calling it quits but they thought of what would have bon wanted them to do so they decided to make a album in his memory.but wait with a new rockalbum you need a new singer...brian johnson a man in a band called geordie got a call from his friend about a audition for a big band called ac/dc and brian johnson tryed out and sang a ac/dc song he knew called whole lotta rosie the band could not belive there ears and right away let him in the band. before bon had died they were working on the classic riffs of back in black and hells bells. so they decided to finish it for bon they also needed a cover so they just thought of plain old black all over it. people offered like black and white and they said no just black.this is a individual look at all of back in black's classic songs.
LINE-UP FOR BACK IN BLACK--
angus young-lead guitarist
brian johnson-lead vocals
malcolm young-rythem guitar,back-up vocals
cliff williams-bass guitar,back-up vocals
phil rudd-drums
HELLS BELLS-this is probobly the darkest song on the album it is a very good start to a very good album.ac/dc were creating this song and they thought of the name and said hey why dont we get a big ass bell and ring it in the begining.the bell was made by a scottish man who built bells for a living. he acually rang it for them in the song...but brian johnson rings it in concert.brian johnson was the new singer and he was scared he wouldnt do a good job with lyrics. he was sitting a room alone thinking of some lyrics for this first song and then he heard a loud crack of thunder and then he started thinking...."im a rolling thunder a pourin rain..."...........rating 9.5/10
SHOOT TO THRILL-shoot to thrill is a my personal favorite song of back in black. this is a saying angus young would often say.this has malcolm youngs best performance i think. rating 9.5/10
WHAT DO YOU DO FOR MONEY HONEY-this is obviously about prostitution. this is brain johnson's best vocal performance on the album. this also has a great guitar ending. i give it a 9/10.
GIVIN' THE DOG A BONE- this is basically about blow-jobs.great guitar riffs and stuff. i give it a 8.5/10
LET ME PUT MY LOVE INTO YOU- a great song that has a great guitar riff...it is obviously about sex. rating 9/10
BACK IN BLACK-one of the greatest songs of all time. this has great vocals great lead and rythem guitar and great drums and bass...this is the ultimate song.this song is the biggest song dedicated to bon scott.its about his life and how wild he was.and for a ultimate song it needs a ultimate rating of 10/10.
YOU SHOOK ME ALL NIGHT LONG- also a very well known song it has a great guitar riff and vocals. its basically about sex...brian johnson said he got the idea for the vocals from the hot girls over in america.its a great song and should be given a 9.5/10
HAVE A DRINK ON ME- a song with a cool guitar intro. it has very good good vocals and is about drinking and getting wasted.it shows what bon did when he was alive.rating 9/10
SHAKE A LEG-this a great song that is the least recognized on this album....it is basically about getting in trouble with the law and stuff like that....its kinda hard to understand brians voclas in this song but over all a 9/10
ROCK AND ROLL AINT NOISE POLLUTION- this is the final song to the back in black album. the guitar is great and the vocals are great and one thing i think is the greatest about this song is the message.at the time people were saying that rock music is bad and is a bad influence on our kids...its really telling people to not listen to rock because of its influence or its religious lyrics...its saying hey just have fun and let the good times roll.im not kidding when i say a 10/10
