For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)

AC/DC's "For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)" marked the band's first album recorded entirely with Brian Johnson, establishing his permanent role after Bon Scott's death and the transitional "Back in Black." Recorded at H.I.S. Studio and Family Studio in Paris using the Mobile One recording truck, the album featured the cannon-firing title track that became AC/DC's signature concert opener, with actual Napoleon-era cannons fired during performances. The album reached #3 on the Billboard 200 and spawned the driving "Let's Get It Up," while Bob Ludwig's mastering at Masterdisk captured the band's deliberate return to a rawer sound after the polished production of their previous mega-hit.
