Do you remember your first time?
No, no, I'm not talking about that... do you remember the first time you heard one of yourfavorite albums of all time?
For me, I think it was in 1983 or 1984 - I was at "Duke"Williams' house celebrating some holiday with his family and mine.He popped AC/DC's 1980 classic Back In Black into his tape deck, pushed play... and changedmy life forever. (I repaid the favor last year, when I took him tosee AC/DC at the United Center.)
You can argue with me all you want about how AC/DC is athree-chord loud boogie band, purveyors of the cock-rock style I'veslammed dozens of other bands for on these pages. But I still love Back In Black, no matter how overplayed it's gotten on rockradio.
