Thats all you really need to know. Face facts, while other bands were writing bitchy pine away ballads, Ac/Dc still was kicking your ass. They are what a hard rock band should be. They embodied the spirit of rock and roll. It was dirty, and rough, and any song of theirs makes for great driving music.
Ac/Dc is rock and roll. I don't care how many kids you see wearing their t-shirt, and I don't care if you can't get past that. Except for "Ride On" they could play any stage on the globe, because they are purity.
I've heard Chuck D say that VH was rock and roll purists, but even then picked up the synth. And when they did, Angus, Malcom, and Brian still were picking up the JD.
