In a recent interview with Swiss radio station SRF 3 , Angus Young was asked which album, in his opinion, defined the AC/DC , and which one he would show to someone who had never heard the band before.
“ Let There Be Rock [1977] is the album for me,” he said, “Because my brother, George , produced it, and when he said at the beginning that we were going to make that album, he asked me and Malcolm, ‘What kind of album do you want to make now?’ And Malcolm looked at me and said, ‘We want an album that has a guitar that’s pure hard rock.’ And I thought that was great because everyone was doing other kinds of genres like punk, new wave.”
He continues: “I thought at the time, ‘this is pure magic,’ and I think this album defined the AC/DC sound in my view. It was at that moment that I thought, ‘this band is amazing.’”
