SynopsisIllustrated with extraordinary photography, AC/DC: Album by Album is an in-depth discussion of each of the band's 16 studio albums by prolific rock journalist Martin Popoff. Formed in 1973, AC/DC became one of the most popular and best-selling bands in rock history with their no-frills approach to loud, heavy, and sweat-drenched blues-based rock music . This new book from talented rock journalist Martin Popoff pays tribute to the band's discography by moderating in-depth and entertaining conversations about all 16 of AC/DC's studio albums , every page illustrated with thoughtfully curated performance and offstage photography and rare memorabilia. Popoff gathers 17 rock journalists and authors who offer insights, opinions, and anecdotes about every release . Together, the conversations comprise a unique history of the band, covering everything from early lineups; the role played by the Youngs' older brother, George; the songwriting and legendary antics of original vocalist Bon Scott; the mega tours undertaken in support of the LPs; the debut of singer Brian Johnson on the band's mega breakthrough, Back in Black ; the band's fallow 1980s and 1990s resurgence; and later difficulties, such as Malcolm's onset of dementia and the legal problems of drummer Phil Rudd., AC/DC: Album by Album is an in-depth discussion of each of the band's 16 studio albums by prolific rock journalist Martin Popoff.
