Rippa32 better go to R&M Request/Upload thread for better results.

[rippa32]

Actually I meant on a vinyl record.

[Ballsack_AC/DC69]

Oh, I don't think that it was ever realeased on vinyl, expcept for maybe as a single.

[rippa32]

Thats what I meant. He only ever released a single. It was Can I Sit Next to You Girl and on the B side it was Rockin in the Parlour. Its very rare.

[Ballsack_AC/DC69]

Try the offical AC/DC fansite, go to the chatroom, those kids proably it.

[guitaraddict21119]

How did you get Let There Be Rock? I have been trying to get that forever off of Amazon.com and it says it's still to be realeased.

dude you can just go to this website. I found it at best buy but it aint there no more :thumb: http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=8-4/qid=1119209928/ref=sr_8_4/602-4438586-8276635?%5Fencoding=UTF8&asin=6300273199

[Brew]

WYWH is a great album. Is Aussie Pink Floyd that cover band?

Yeh, they're amazing.

Don't worry AB/CD, its not as bad as over in the Sabbath thread when we get n00bs asking about Ozzy's solo band.

//

I ripped Fly on the Wall to my pooter earlier, it's an alright album.

[SmashingPumpkin]

All of their songs sound exactly the same to me.
I agree. They're highly over-rated.

[guitaraddict21119]

I agree. They're highly over-rated.

The only way i think they are over rated is because you get all these little poser kids wearin their shirts so they can be cool. But you have to admit they have really good riffs. AC/DC kicks anis. they are my favorite band of all time.

[AB/CD]

fly on the wall is a great album but not many people give it a chance becos of the crappy production which was done by angus and Malcolm

[PIGS(1 different one)]

Can someone upload what they consider to be AC/DC'S rock masterpeice?

I want to hear their most epic song.

You can upload it here: www.yousendit.com

[rippa32]

All of them are good. But why dont you just look for Let There Be Rock, itll be easy to find.

[acdcroker]

fly on the wall is a great album but not many people give it a chance becos of the crappy production which was done by angus and Malcolm

Danger Shake Your Foundations and Sink the Pink are the only songs i really like the rest are just ok

[rippa32]

Who produced Flick of the Switch?

[AB/CD]

Angus and Malcolm produced flick of the switch well i think it was all of AC/DC think it says it on the back

[rippa32]

Has anyone also noticed the kinda crappy production of For Those About to Rock? You can hardly hear Brian's voice.

[AB/CD]

well i dont see how u worked that out becos the production on for those about to rock would probably be exactly the same as back in black becos it was mutt lange on both

[motleyman]

phill rudd and angus are awsome. i don't no wut yur tokin about

[motleyman]

Has anyone also noticed the kinda crappy production of For Those About to Rock? You can hardly hear Brian's voice.


he aint the gratest anyway. anyone who goes to see ac/dc go to see angus

[spenser93]

just let me say in advance that a lot of people will probably disagree with me on this but im kind of hypocritical on this so here i go....

AC/DC is a good band in the sense that they play catchy tunes that you can hear for the first time and sing along to or tap your foot to. but.... Thats because there songs a simple but good. AC/DC isnt all that great of musicians they've won people over simplicity and catchyness
Ac/Dc=PWNAGE


But seriosly ac dc is one of the better 70's bands that actully had distortion aside from van halen.......

[Jovian]

Highway to Hell.... best AC/DC song ever. :cool:

[AB/CD]

have u heard a song other than highway to hell or back in black?

[TyVeRsOn_03]

cmon u guys ac/dc is the best band on the face of the earth...ive seen a lot of ppl disagree........but when u compare selling records 2 most other bands ac/dc will b near the top.....and they have some serious talent.....

[rippa32]

learn grammer please.

[AB/CD]

learn to spell then post somewhere else we have heard speeches like that plenty of times dont need it to start all over again

[Bon_Scottie]

The only thing that annoys me about the remastered CD's is that the corners of the cases seem to wear away, even without touching them.

Random thought there.

[barnz1986]

simple, yeah, but great. one of my favorite bands. oh yeah, anyone can recognize acdc because of bon Scott and Brian Johnsons' voices.
holy! 72nd page!

[BrokenMachine]

One of the better bands of the 80's and years following. Their music is just addictive.

[AB/CD]

****ing better band of the 70s right through 80, 90s and hopefilly 00s

[Brewer14]

simple, yeah, but great. one of my favorite bands. oh yeah, anyone can recognize acdc because of bon Scott and Brian Johnsons' voices.
holy! 72nd page!

Not only that, but Angus and Malcolm's tones are instantly recognizable.

Case in point- Id never heard Live Wire before, yet as soon as I heard the opening bass line, and the guitar kick in, I knew it was AC/DC. They've got one of the most recognizable sounds out there.

[AB/CD]

only cos they dont go over the top they dont exactly go right we need this big *** lead intro i mean thunderstruck wasnt even that difficult an intro but it sounded great and if any1 says he plays it with 1 hand ill slap u with a massive trout on a stick

[slash10]

AC/DC was the band that made me play guitar... my biggest influences are angus young and slash... ac/dc's songs may be simple, but angus can really play the guitar.. but... what do i know?? im only 13

[AB/CD]

yeah Angus wail on a guitar :rolleyes:

[rippa32]

only cos they dont go over the top they dont exactly go right we need this big *** lead intro i mean thunderstruck wasnt even that difficult an intro but it sounded great and if any1 says he plays it with 1 hand ill slap u with a massive trout on a stick

Ive never been able to work out why people thought he played it with one hand.

[EinzingerIsGod]

Probably one of the most over rated bands ever aside from the Beatles. Everything sounds like its in Am to me. I just can't hear the variation.

[rippa32]

Good for you.

[Brewer14]

Ive never been able to work out why people thought he played it with one hand.

Prolly cause he does it in the video

[rippa32]

He does? What you mean the promo clip?

[Brewer14]

He does? What you mean the promo clip?

Yeah

It does look cool. Ive heard he plays it that way live for show

[Ballsack_AC/DC69]

Ive never been able to work out why people thought he played it with one hand.
Because he does in the Thunderstruck video.

[Ballsack_AC/DC69]

Yeah

It does look cool. Ive heard he plays it that way live for show
On No Bull, Live At Donnington, and Stiff Upper Lip he doesn't.

[rippa32]

Yer thats what I thought cause I have Donington and Ive never seen him do it. He does for part of Dirty Deeds solo and other various places though.

[Brewer14]

Yer thats what I thought cause I have Donington and Ive never seen him do it. He does for part of Dirty Deeds solo and other various places though.

Oh. I dunno if he does it live or not, Ive just heard he does.

[rippa32]

Not for thunderstruck he doesnt. We need a change of topic, how about Family Jewels, I still dont have it, is it worth it for just a few promo clips and hardly any live footage?

[AB/CD]

the promo clips r good tho very cheap like but good live clips r better tho id say its worth it just to see themm all cos a few r rare

[rippa32]

I will eventually but probably not in near future. Ive almost got all of Bons albums that and the Bonfire boxset might be first.

[AB/CD]

bonfire boxset is allright ive never listened to it all really cos youve rpetty much heard everythign on it already cos the volts disk with the original of whole lottarosie an all does actually sound very simaliar to them songs in some ways

[Bon_Scottie]

Anybody seen the video for Big Gun?

[angusvsslash52]

I came along a song "Boom Boom" it was done in a radio interview, when they were publicising Ballbreaker, its pretty awesome, Brian sings it pretty dman awesome, and Angus' playin is awesome, I like this song sang by Brian almost more than when John Lee Hooker played it and sang it.

[AB/CD]

ive tried for ages to get the video for big gun but ive seen pictures of arnie dressed as Angus

[Brewer14]

If anyone can find Carry Me Home off Kazaa or something like that, download it. Great song that I dont think has been released in the US, it might be on Volts, Im not sure. But download it.

i can make this post and half of you wont even know i existed, malcolm kills, more of a writer than angus

[rippa32]

I dont get it. Although I understood the point of Malcolm and yes great writer although Angus wrote his bits, Malcolm his and Bon/Brian thiers (well not all of Brian) so it was pretty even.

Any chance you can host some of these for me? I'd really like to give them a listen.

Yeah, the video for Big Gun is really funny. Arnie duck walks and stuff with Angus, and the gibson SG looks really small on him.

[AB/CD]

it is a small guitar its just angus is prety small so looks bigger on him

[rippa32]

Yeah it's great for him because its so light as well. I personally find them a bit too small and would probably never own one.

I cant find Messin with the Kid, which sucks since its a cover of a blues song, and Hellbilly Ditty. I wish I could, the latter has Angus singing :p

As many as possible! If you can't be bothered, just a few of the good ones will do. Cheers mate.

You can blatently hear Bon on School days saying 'Not yet Jimmy'.

I actually like his work on Beating Around the Bush ( a highlight on the Highway to Hell album)

[carnal_forgeries]

I never got 2 into them, I found they were sort of corny. Their tapping solos were great though.

[rippa32]

Corny?, tapping? are you sure youre not thinking of some other band?

[AB/CD]

well AC/DC can be corny but never have they used any really good techniques like tapping

[rippa32]

When has AC/DC been corny?

[Brewer14]

Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaailbreak!

/bored

Anyway, this songs sweet. Im not 100% sure if its AC/DC or not, but it has Bon singing, and it kicks anyway, so who cares?

Heh, yeah. Still a good song

Carry Me Home is on the radio! Nice surprise...

[stratman]

Yeah thats AC/DC. I own that CD and its the best song on it. There are only five songs on there.

[stratman]

sorry, I thoght you were talking about jailbreak. I don't know.

[PowerChord]

I agree with you somewhat. But i find people are alot more interested in catchy toons with 'not so great' instrumentals apposed to those with amazing instrumentals and less catchy of a tune.

[Bucky]

Everyone has their own taste. It depends on whether they like to sing a long, or tap their foot.

[FrailandBedazzled1979]

When has AC/DC been corny?

Mistress for Christmas lol, but i still love it :D

[rippa32]

Yeah great song. Hey I remember you, you havnt posted in a while have you?

Might have been somebody helping out with the recording? The recording is really shabby, but I think that adds to the feel of the song. Really love the intro.

get snake eyes up i dont wanna ruin my record :D songs amazing

[live theory]

AC/DC is an ok band. Sure, they're one of the biggest badns in older rock but the talent isn't up to par with others of their time. Some of their songs are pretty good, but like others have said, the ones that don't sound the same aren't bad.

[maddog87]

^^^ you just think that because other newbies say that.if any of you actually sat down and learned the solos, you will find that their not so easy.sure,their not clapton or page stuff, but angus has a truckload of talent

No.

[Shaft!]

AC/DC is the best rock band ever.If anyone has a problem with AC/DC they have a problem with me!!!!!! Also, Angus Young has some of the best solos' ever!!!!
AC/DC is alright by me, but saying that they're the best is stretching it, in my opinion. Angus has some alright solos, but I've found Hendrix, Page, Hammett, and numerous others to be leagues ahead of Angus. Best solos ever is pushing it, in my opinion.
yea i completely agree witht that .........check out my new thread.....AC/DC is the best rock band..........
Again, it's pushing it. You have Hendrix and Zep to look over, and AC/DC gets repetitive to me.
I like AC/DC well enough, especially "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", but I don't consider them to be the all time greatest. There's simply too much to really go into before reaching a conclusion such as that.
But "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" is very catchy to me.

[Brewer14]

Yes the B-Side was Rockin in the Parlour. I like Can I sit Next to You Girl but I only have Bon's version.

[Bon_Scottie]

Don't forget to keep uploading Brewer, its great to hear these rarities.

Did Dave Evans record many songs then? Or just those two?

Crabsody in Blue (http://s40.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=379V5MYDCW5V10EK2MPPZVNX0B) (note- Aussies have heard this most likely, its on Let There Be Rock but wasnt released in America :upset: )

[barnz1986]

Not only that, but Angus and Malcolm's tones are instantly recognizable.

Case in point- Id never heard Live Wire before, yet as soon as I heard the opening bass line, and the guitar kick in, I knew it was AC/DC. They've got one of the most recognizable sounds out there.

true. but the vocals are more recognizable i think

[rippa32]

Don't forget to keep uploading Brewer, its great to hear these rarities.

Did Dave Evans record many songs then? Or just those two?

Just those two, he was then replaced for the night once cause he didnt show up. Bon sang from then on, he was too glam rock anyway.

[The Mercenary highvoltage]

Best rock n roll band there is and Angus is one fo the greatest guitar players and theyr riffs may be simple but the solo's are **** hard( I can see because some people find it to hard to post the solo of live wire complete.) But still wish i could one day paly better then him but that day will never come :P But i'll still enjoy it always enjoied it and all of there songs are great . Some fans say that flick of the switch and Fly on the wall or not so great but to me they're just anohter 2 great albums full of Good old ROck n roll

[Hardrockguitardude15]

AC/DC aren't as talented as many bands but there still good. But if it weren't for AC/DC i probably wouldn't have started playing the guitar or listening to rock music at all. They just rock.

I was pretty surprised when I read that, but I wouldnt doubt it.Although I cant imagine anyone besides Bon singing any of those songs. Hes an underrated songwriter also.

[Bon_Scottie]

Once again, thanks for the rares.

Have you got Fling thing/Rocker audio file? Its awesome on Family Jewels, and I've wanted it ever since I saw that video. Just, blew me away...

Bon is a superb lyricist. I think they defined that rock and roll era. Great loss to the music industry.

On Flick Of The Swich he uses a Steinburger sp?, and on the rest I think he uses a standard Fender bass.

On that site it said that Brain Shake was an unrealeased single, but I got on the Flick Of The Switch CD, it also says that Rock N Roll Singer wasn't realased but I got it with High Voltage, maybe I'm misreading it though. :)

[rippa32]

Yes. Listen to Live Wire and School Days. I know its not a high point of AC/DC but there is a few songs where you can clearly hear it. Especially the ones Mark Evans played on.

[Follow The Reaper]

Can anyone actually hear the bass on any of their songs?
Live Wire and Sin City are about it, they don't have a very good bassist, Mark Evans was a lot better then Cliff Wiliams. On '74 Jailbreak it's obvious he is.

[paintballpunk96]

All there stuff sounds the same. Angus Young is why too over rated. It's really sad how a band could acheive such popularity with songs that sound all the same and are as easy as sin. :upset: And I guess i don't like the whole "Gutiar dominates the rest of the band thing" either

[Darth_Iren]

I haven't heard anything by Dave Evans. The reason I ask is because when I was looking for a bass, I was thinking about getting his, not really because I'm a Cliff fan, more because I'm an AC/DC fan. But I already got my bass, lucky I picked the one I did too, it's a standard Fender bass =P

Rockin in the Parlor (http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3KBQEOQPLQ93312W2Q18XM45LO)

[rippa32]

Wow. No wonder they fired him.

[Brewer14]

Wow. No wonder they fired him.

Haha yeah. Bons way better

[rippa32]

I prefer Brian much more too. Id love to be able to hear Bon sing that song though.

[SouthernRocker]

AC/DC sound good.
That's all that matters in music.



I agree.

[ACDCrocker4321]

i really like AC/DC although some songs do sound the same...but when a band puts out 17 CD's its bound to get repetitive, i dont blame them.
yea i would have to agree with u on that one. its hard not to get too repetitive w/ 17 cd's.

[Enough Said91]

Yea, some of their songs are repetitve, but hey, :"if it ain't broken don't fix it", theyu repeat it because they know its good, the were so succesful for a reason.

[acdcroker]

Can anyone actually hear the bass on any of their songs?

I can hear the bass to Squealer which I think is a very underrated song the bass is very catchy and the solo rocks too

[acdcroker]

I just saw the video to rock me baby with AC/DC playing with the Rolling stones it's a good video Angus is playing a les paul it looks huge on him

Thanks dude, thats awesome. I cant see Angus playing anything but his SG

[rippa32]

Me neither. but I wont look at that site. I have dial-up and couldnt be arsed to look.

[Follow The Reaper]

Where does Blackballed come from?
Well, it said it was a demo so it was proably from when they were first trying to get signed, before '74 Jailbreak was realeased.

[rippa32]

'74 Jailbreak was not there first album. In fact its an EP released in the 80's(I think) but it is not there first. There first was High Voltage (not the one with Long Way) the international one was basically a slightly altered TNT album.

[Follow The Reaper]

No, High Voltage was their first in America, but Jailbreak was realeased in Australia in '75 I think. And it was realeased in America after Back In Black.

[rippa32]

Jailbreak was never released in Australia until recently when the whole International catalouge was released in Australia. Yes I said that High Voltage was the first internationally but it was almost unrecognisable to the Australian version because it was just the Australian TNT with a couple of songs taken off and replaced by Little Lover and Can I Sit Next to You Girl.

[randy_rhoads]

They are a great band they sonund great, they're fun, don't take themselves too seriously, and, i don't give a **** what the hell you think but they DO have more talent than the majority of new bands.

[rippa32]

When you say "i don't give a **** what the hell you think". Are you referring to the Threadstarter? because we got over that a long time ago.

Maybe not in Austraila, but in Europe or somewhere, I remember reading that it was realeased in some foreign county (to me at least).

EDIT: I'm sorry, it was the Jailbreak single that was realeased in Australia.

And I looked at the booklet inside of '74 Jailbreak and it said it was realeased in North Americain 1984.

[woundedmonkey]

AC/DC rules. Angus Young is one of my all time favorite guitar players. Hey, does anyone know anything about AC/DC's reunion tour?

[GOme]

They will probably tour after they release their new cd...
hopefully it wont suck :upset:

[Bon_Scottie]

Reunion tour?

They haven't broke up or anything, so it wouldn't be a reunion. Basically, the new album is being released, and hopefully they'll do a world tour.

Brians voice might not be able to take it, but what the hey!

[Follow The Reaper]

Brians voice was never able to take it...

[AB/CD]

brian voice will be able to take it i meanhe has had a 5 year break and has had lots of practice iwth other bands so hes bound to be just as good as before

[Follow The Reaper]

I meant he never could sing.

[AB/CD]

then how did he gte into 1 of the biggest rock bands ever?

[Follow The Reaper]

Angus and Malcolm were hi that day...

[maddog87]

ive been on vacation. how did the cover go and does anyone have a link??

[Brewer14]

Brian ruled back before his voice went out.

[maddog87]

bon was better,and brians voice has deterriorated over the years. he shoudnt have smoked so much

[Brewer14]

bon was better,and brians voice has deterriorated over the years. he shoudnt have smoked so much

Yeah Bons was better, but I still like Brian's.

[maddog87]

yeah, there are some songs that would have not been as sucsessful if bon sung them,mainly because the attacking growlish voice brian has.

[Follow The Reaper]

Bon Scott could kick the **** out of Brian if he was still alive on any song easily.

[Bucky]

Yeah but Bon's gone, and we have to realize that Brian replaced him and did the best he could. And it proved to be good.

[groomits]

I just read the first post of the topic (didn't want to read the 78 pages) and I don't know if I'm still in the conversation but I'll say that there's a thing that we don't care about when we criticize. and this thing is the influence. Yeah ac/dc music is very simple, the musicians are overrated but if they are famous, its because they are good in something, no?

Ac/dc popularized their rock style, and if they didn't decide to form a band, a lot of today's band would not sound the same or would not even exist.

this is my 2 cents..

[Follow The Reaper]

Yeah but Bon's gone, and we have to realize that Brian replaced him and did the best he could.
Yes, and his best was quite obviously not good enough.

[rocknrolldude]

[QUOTE=acdcroker]I can hear the bass to Squealer which I think is a very underrated song the bass is very catchy and the solo rocks too[

that song is underrated and that solo shows that Angus isnt overrated he can just play :thumb:

He is still overrated like ****in crazy. He is amazingly overrated.

[rippa32]

Look why dont you take your close mind and leave? I am sick of this Brian bashing, he may not be as good as Bon but you wont even give him a chance, and I wish people would stop arguing if he is overrated or underrated, that was finished on the second page.

[Bon_Scottie]

Loved "Rockin' in the parlour" by the way, Brewer.

Any more for any more?

[ACDCrocker4321]

[QUOTE=flyhalf]acdc made me take up guitar :thumb:QUOTE]

Yeah angus made me take up guitar too!

[Bucky]

Yes, and his best was quite obviously not good enough.

His best was obviously good enough, seeing that Back in Black sold over 21 million copies in the U.S. and over 900,000 in Australia. Bon was best, but Brian did better than anyone else could have to replace Bon.

[Follow The Reaper]

You guys I was kidding, I actually think that Brian has a pretty good voice. No Bon but still pretty good I guess.

[RNR]

He did well but I would rather have Bon.

I would go so far as to stick Bon's Brain and vocal cords into Brain if that would actually work, which it probably wouldn't.

sorry guys, it's late and i'm jsut ramblimng

[Brewer14]

Ac Dc is one of the greatest... just deal with it.

[rippa32]

How come this didn't feature on the album? It's actually pretty good.

I hope to god the next album is hard rock. They've started throwing in a few light rock tunes in on recent albums, and they're just better when they kick out the harder tunes.

[rippa32]

Yeah I see what you mean.

[Werny]

Bon Scott's birthday today if I'm correct. R.I.P.

[Brewer14]

Happy Birthday Bon!

RIP

[Bon_Scottie]

A legend never dies.

On a lighter note, my mate was going to sell me five of his AC/DC albums for fifteen quid. He won't tell me why he's doing it though, its not like him to give away AC/DC albums for that price... or at all. Sadly, I already had three of them, but he'll let me have two of them for seven quid.

Score.

[rippa32]

Scratched? I am thinking of selling my High Voltage album to get the Australian edition cause when I bought it I didnt realise the tracks were different. So ill probably sell that then get the Aussie High Voltage and TNT. That could be his reasoning if you live in Australia.

[Bon_Scottie]

I'm in the UK, hah.

Basically, he won't tell me why he needs the money. I think he's going to be really sneaky and some how get hold of like, the collection or something.

The CD's are perfect condition.

I hate him. He knows how much of a fan I am. If he got the collection I'd be proper jealous...

[rippa32]

Those collections are like $300 though. I think thats about 200 pounds.

[Aeaon]

I've been thinking of selling High Voltage and HIghway To Hell. SO that I can get the remastered versions.


I hope it happens though.

[rippa32]

You mean sell vinyl records?

[angusmaster]

Ive got a Question , what happened to AC/DCs first bass player.

[RNR]

he sucked so they kicked him out and replaced him with cliff who sucks also.

Face it, bass is unimportant when talking about AC/DC.

Watch the live footage of "Sin City" on the 'Family Jewels' DVD. :amaze:

And to other AC/DC fans out there check this out!!!:

Agreed. Nobody ever talks about it but that's one of their best. I have it on vinyl.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Thanks man. :)

All my friends listen to is 'Back in Black'.

There's a whole another world out there when you talk about AC/DC with Bon Scott.

'Let there be rock' is also a good album, just not very good recording.

[Follow The Reaper]

Let There Be Rock Is a great album, the only reason the songs are alittle ****ed up is because Angus's amp blew up in middle of recording.

I would do that with AC/DC, but I don't know how to put them on the computer.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Jake's 3 step method to recording stuff.
1. Go to Walmart or any other place with an electronics section and purchase a 10 dollar computer mic.

2. Download the recording program audacity from http://www.audacity.sourceforge.net and use it to record.

3. Upload the song either on http://www.yousendit.com or create an account on http://www.soundclick.com

[Follow The Reaper]

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap is another Bon Scott masterpiece.

I found out that most of the time, angus doesnt even use any distortion pedals or anything, just a loud tube amp amplified by pa systems.

[Follow The Reaper]

He doesn't even use Pa Systems, he only uses Marshall Amps with natural distortion pedals, he is against pedals, and effects.

[RNR]

Well obviously.

[Follow The Reaper]

Hey, I was just telling BB about it.

[brettberry]

Well obviously.
explain "obviously"

[Follow The Reaper]

explain "obviously"
I think he meant that they are rock and roll and rock and roll generally doesn't use any effects. You can't hear any effects on any of their albums. If you watch them they have a ****load of amps so they obviously don't need a pa system, and Angus has said many times that they don't use PA's, effects, just natural distortion.

[RNR]

explain "obviously"

He doesn't use effects. His tone is really dry and lifeless, you can hear it in the music. If he only used some effects the band would be twice as good.

[brettberry]

you might burn in hell for that, you mean the beginning of Thunderstruck has no life, what about hells bells, or even highway to hell?

[RNR]

I just said his tone wasn't very good. The band is great, ballsy, hard rockin' and has one of the best live shows ever.

[Follow The Reaper]

Because Angus and Malcolm saw AC/DC (AlternateCurrent/DirrectCurrent) on a Vacum cleaner and thought it was a good name.
