Agreed. I think it's because it comes on the heels of Back in Black and the very good For Those About To Rock back to back withing a year of one another, and then this was 2 years removed from the latter. It's unrealistic to think they can come close to Back in Black.

Flick Of The Switch was the Johnson era Powerage. They got rid of Mutt Lange and his shiny radio friendly production and went back to the raw sound of the Bon era that wasn't drenched in reverb and delay. I think it's easily as good as For Those About To Rock, and better than any album that came after 1983. By the time Fly On The Wall was released Brian's voice had changed drastically.

My ears rang for 3 days, and ever since, that show is the benchmark for loud rock n roll. Been to many show's over the yrs. and NO ONE has come close. That says something about AC/DC. By the way, someone fired an aerial fireworks rocket into the ceiling of the all wooden dome right after they launched into "This house is on fire" off FotS, and it did catch fire for a few minutes.What still amazes me is the band never skipped a single note, and they saw it too.

What you're seeing in this video is new drummer Simon Wright, but what you're hearing is Phil Rudd's drum work; he's the drummer on the whole "Flick Of The Switch" album. He left/was forced to leave right after recording that album, but was thankfully back in the drum seat again starting with 1995's "Ballbreaker". Phil is the secret ingredient to just about every great AC/DC song from 1975-1983 and again starting in 1995 (for all studio recordings; others have drummed live circa 2015-2016 and again starting in 2023).

This is AC/DC's rawest album. It's also one of my favorites because of that. I think the thing was at this time (1983) AC/DC was coming off two monster albums, but MTV was taking over. AC/DC videos had been, by and large, just videos of them playing. With videos now selling records as much as anything, the shot of the tuning room was great and pure but had no real theatrics (Angus without his suit?). The following album they tried a concept video that even they admit didn't cut the mustard (though I do like "Fly On the Wall"). Sales dipped but then once the band embraced theatrics in their videos in 1986 with Who Made Who the band's sales started to rise again. "You Shook Me All Night Long" is my favorite AC/DC video as it is the one in which Brian Johnson stars, and then there's Corrine Russell. But I used to love watching this video on "Headbangers Ball" 30 years ago! Wait, 30 years ago? That can't be right.

mike hamilton All of the bands albums were good. For me, the Bon Scott years can never be matched. They were on fire from the get go until Bon's untimely death. The Brian Johnson years for me are from 1980 to 88, from back in black to blow up your video, and all the albums in between are what made that era of the band come close to the Bon era, but not quite. I enjoyed Ballbreaker more than Razors edge, and the rest were just ok. Although the razors edge tour and the Ballbreaker tour were both phenomenal. It's been that long since I've seen the band, in which I've seen them on every tour since For those about to rock, minus Flick of the switch.

2:35 you see Malcolm has a broken string. I have a Gretsch just like what he is playing here and I have the same gauge strings he used, they’re very heavy, 13 - 56, so to break one, it’s really takes some beating on. Wow.

Bit of trivia for those who might not know...Simon Wright is on the drums in this video, but Phil Rudd played on the album. He was fired just after the recording sessions IIRC.

I think that this is their best album from the Johnson era. It's filled with the raw energy that the Bon era albums had, which most of the Johnson era albums lacked. The Johnson era seemed polished and commercial, even Back in Black. Flick of the Switch was a tour de force of raw, energetic rock and roll. I don't know why it's so under appreciated.
@sellisti8 жыл бұрын
My thoughts exactly. This album has such a badass mean attitude and aggressive overall sound that it gives you the chills! And Brian sounds better than ever. Amazing album!
@GrayWoIf8 жыл бұрын
It's my favorite Brian album I recently found it that it didn't sell as well as previous albums and was considered a disappointment. I really don't understand why it's as AC/DC as you can get.
@aradiobox8 жыл бұрын
I believe a lot of this has to do with the fact that Flick of the Switch was self-produced. No Mutt Lange.

This was such an underated album, so many great in your face rocking songs. I think 1 reason it was so overlooked was the time period. You had Mtv, spandex, makeup, big hair, flash and cash music that AC/DC wasn't a part of. I rate it a very close second to BIB.
