It’s a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll. And today...  (After the awful Rock or Bust I hoped they’d call it a day. This makes me glad they didn’t.) |

I wonder what wormhole I'll disappear down next time I enter the Youtube zone. The last AC/DC album I bought was Black Ice which sounded like the old band I knew. I went off them in 1985 with the Fly on the Wall album and never really gave them a second thought until 2008.

Black Ice was pretty good, although 15 tracks is five too many for a DC album. Crucially, it sounds right, with that delicious transparency despite the weight and the volume. Fly has some good songs — Sink the Pink, Shake Your Foundations — but the Young brothers tried to produce it themselves and the sound is horrible. Wrong drummer too: Phil Rudd was away on the first of his little absences, and they’re just not the same band without him. So it seems odd that they can play so well without Malcolm, but there you go.
