Classic Rock Special AC & DC – 8th Edition, 2024

Overview: AC/DC bring people together. Exciting, heavy, groovy, funny, unpretentious, timeless, they were the cover stars of Classic Rock’s best-selling issue ever (CR125 in November 2008), which came out just as the band returned with Black Ice.

If you’re up there, Bon, please forgive us). Over the years, we’ve covered Bon’s death – a story that gets a brief update here – and the band’s resurrection with Back In Black, and everything in between.

Prog magazine Editor Jerry Ewing – an Aussie by birth – saw them in Australia when he was 10. When the band announced that Brian Johnson had left and was to be replaced by Axl Rose, we were there for their first European shows with him. What next for AC/DC? Who knows. In late 2020, the band announced a reunion with Brian Johnson and launched a chart-topping new album, Power Up, heralding a new era for the legendary rockers. But what will that era bring?

If you want blood, you got it…
