This week Allan welcomes back the amazing AC/DC. Anchored
by one of rock's most rhythmic duos - brothers Angus and Malcolm
- and buoyed by the infamous throaty drawl of singer Brian Johnson,
Stiff Upper Lip not only serves up the kind of carnal shards that
fans have come to expect, (it's their first studio album in
five years) but also tips its hat to the blues-rock-roots of AC/DC
and brother/producer George Young - who returns to the work the
boards for the first time since 1978's classic Powerage.
"Malcolm and I were sitting around going over possible
producers one day," recalls Angus. "We started talking
about records and stuff and the idea of using George again just
snapped into our heads at the same time. Obviously he knows
what AC/DC is all about. For us there has always been that subtle
blues element in what we do. All good rock has that foundation
of the blues in it somewhere."

By the way, if you do get through on the phones Sunday night, make
sure you have a question. I know that sounds obvious, but
you would be amazed how many people call in just to say how much
they love the band. After the band says "thank you",
they have nothing else to say. Tell the band how much you
love them and then ask a killer question. This is talk radio!
The better your questions, the better the show - and, the better
chance you have getting through the screener.
Thanks,
Allan
