AC/DC - BBC in Concert, Hammersmith Odeon, London, Britain, 11-2-1979

AC/DC isn't my cup of tea. But a lot of people like them, and they did a well-timed show for the BBC, so I'm posting this as part of my overall BBC project. 

When I say "well-timed," what I mean is that it was recorded shortly before lead singer Jon Scott died of acute alcohol poisoning in February 1980. Most AC/DC divides the band's career into two phases, the 1970s with Scoot as lead vocalist, and Brian Johnson as the lead vocalist for all the years after that. So this represents the peak of the Bon Scott years, coming on the heels of their massive success with the "Highway to Hell" album.

This performance remains officially unreleased. The sound quality is very good, and there were no problems to fix. There wasn't a live album released from this tour at the time, although an archival box set, "Bonfire," has another concert from this tour included in it.

AC/DC did record some studio sessions for the BBC during the Bon Scott era. But as far as I can tell, they didn't do any BBC concerts or sessions in the Brian Johnson era.

This album is an hour and 27 minutes long.

The cover photo comes from this exact concert - kind of. Most of it does. But the bright parts were extremely washed out, and the colors were weird. That made lead singer Scott in the middle look like a white blob. So I took a photo of him from a different 1979 concert and used Photoshop to paste him in exactly where Scott was standing in the original photo. Hopefully, it looks okay now.

Oh, and as for the text, I used the font that the band often used for their name. I then found what that font was called and used it for the rest of the text.
