On November 23, 1981, nearly 40 years ago, AC/DC released their 8th studio album For Those About to Rock We Salute You, the follow-up to their highly successful album Back in Black. The band literally came out guns blazing for the tour that followed, with the album's title track providing the bombastic close to most of their concerts in the years to follow.
In a career not lacking in bold statements, "for those about to rock / we salute you" seemed like the boldest of all–the new rock gods honoring their flock. Brian Johnson's second album with the band also took the group straight into the heart of hard rock. But the album is far deeper than the title track, the streamlined, clean riffs of "I Put the Finger On You" and "Let's Get it Up" were template-setting arena rock numbers that showed off choruses that were more like soccer chants. In their review, Rolling Stone magazine declared it to be their best album, and it was AC/DC's first and only No. 1 album in the USA (until the release of Black Ice in October 2008).
