Like, they'll drop some piece of information and then just move on, leaving it vague. For example, when Phil Rudd was fired, they take a quote from someone who claims it had something to do with a "a messy personal situation that involved someone in the Youngs' circle..." We know drugs were involved - they include that - but someone in the Youngs' circle? Who? Why use such a vague quote if it can be (at least partly) chalked up to his drug use? Similarly, when they cover former manager Ian Jeffrey's firing, they use a quote from Phil Carson (label exec) who said: "Certain members of the band had personal issues. And personal issues caused a great deal of paranoia. And they fired crew members, Phil Rudd went...." What issues? Elaborate, please. Angus gets married. To who?

The first chapter of the book talks about the aforementioned move from Scotland to Australia, then largely focuses on Angus and Malcolm's older brother George. He found some success as a member of the Easybeats, then later writing and producing for others. This is definitely a logical place to start - after all, George had quite a hand in AC/DC's career, at least in the earlier years. But I thought it seemed a bit choppy. Like all the information wasn't there. However, I thought, it's just the first chapter, we're just getting going. It'll improve once we actually get into AC/DC. George isn't the focus anyways, right?

Malcolm and younger brother Angus Young came from a close family in which an older brother had enjoyed some success in the music world. Especially vivid is the gritty struggle AC/DC fought to achieve Australian success and then take that to London for something greater. On just a couple of occasions the narrative doesn’t satisfy. To the dilettantish reader like me, learning that Angus settled for a Gibson SG guitar instead of a Les Paul doesn’t mean a thing. And even though I like cars, I have only a vague idea of the significance inherent in drummer Phil Rudd’s choice of wheels, an HK Monaro. It sounds more like a brand of cigarettes. Sometimes I just need the full explanation.
