LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-JAN 18, 2019… 31 YEARS AGO AC/DC RELEASED THEIR 10TH ALBUM INTERNATIONALLY ‘BLOW UP YOUR VIDEO’.
BRIAN JOHNSON WROTE ALL THE LYRICS ON THIS ALBUM, AND IT WOULD MARK THE LAST AC/DC ALBUM IN WHICH HE WOULD BE CREDITED AS A SONGWRITER FOR THE BAND. ALL ALBUMS AFTERWARDS LISTED THE YOUNG BROTHERS AS SONGWRITERS.
SOME AC/DC TRIVIA. BOTH MALCOLM YOUNG AND ANGUS YOUNG DROPPED OUT OF SCHOOL AT THE AGE OF 14 YEARS 9 MONTHS OLD. THAT WAS THE AGE THEY WERE LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO SO.
AC/DC ARE ALSO ONE OF THE SHORTEST BANDS. MALCOLM YOUNG WAS 5’3”, ANGUS YOUNG WAS 5’2” AND BRIAN JOHNSON TOWERED OVER THEM AT 5’5”.
HERE’S AC/DC FROM 1988 WITH HEATSEEKER.
