428 - AC/DC Back in Black 1980

No one could have expected AC/DC to continue recording into the '80s, let alone create an album such as "Back In Black". The hard playing, no holds barred lifestyle that had defined the band's persona throughout the '70s had ironically claimed its biggest proponent, lead singer Bon Scott. The band had been on the cusp of worldwide popularity following its 1979 album Highway to Hell, but Scott's death nearly served as the final chapter in the AC/DC saga. The band weathered the tragedy and soldiered on, soon replacing Scott with Brian Johnson, and entered the new decade with steely resolve. The result of the band's determined efforts was of course, 1980's "Back in Black".
