Synopsis

Let There Be Rock is the definitive story of AC/DC's rise to the pinnacle of rock 'n' roll's stratosphere.

Learn how this group of Australian mates became one of the few truly legendary rock and roll bands in history. Author Susan Masino traces the band's roots, from their beginnings in Sydney, Australia in the early 1970s to trail-blazing the United States mainstream to the devastating death of lead singer Bon Scott in 1980. After that tragedy, the band pulled together and rebounded to the top of the charts with new front man, Brian Johnson, and their watershed album, Back in Black.

The book follows the band through four decades of triumph and tragedy, including Malcolm's last performances on the Black Ice tour, and Angus picking up the torch. Through it all, AC/DC continues their quest to build a legion of new fans in the twenty-first century.

Compiled from Susan Masino's interviews with the group across the last forty years, as well as dozens of new interviews with other musicians and friends of the band, Let There Be Rock reveals the real story of AC/DC.

Leider eine Wort für Wort Übersetzung, das Ganze liest sich wie ein Schulaufsatz eines Zehnjährigen Legasthenikers.......more

2.5 I wasn't a fan of author's writing style and her personal opinions and experiences that she put in this book. I think she jumped from one thing to another and their story could've been written in a better way.......more

Susan's love for the band truly shines in this educational rock tribute. What an incredible life these guys have lived, and to learn that they are actually kind humans as well makes me so happy. Saw them April 2025 in Vancouver BC and glad I did. Thanks for the memories, to the band and the author.......more
