1986. Ed ecco il peggior disco degli Ac/Dc, registrato malissimo in Svizzera (ma che cacchio ci facevano là?). Le sirene del fallimento già avevano fatto allontanare il bravo batterista Phil Rudd, il rimpiazzo è Simon Wright assunto da un annuncio anonimo sul giornale... La line-up prevede oltre il nuovo batterista Angus Young (lead guitar), Malcom Young (rhythm guitar), Cliff Williams (bass)e Brian Johnson (vocals).

Il disco è stato un disastro sia commercialmente che per la critica, fa rivalutare persino l'inutile "Flick Of The Switch", questi non sono gli Ac/Dc!! Le canzoni che si salvano (ma neanche tanto visto la qualità sonora) sono Shake Your Foundation (quasi una disco-dance-bleah), Danger e Sink The Pink, per il resto il nulla o quasi. Il suono è sempre lo stesso, stile Ac/Dc: parte il ritmo della chitarra dei fratelli Young, batteria, canta Brian, ritornello, assolo di Angus, ritornello finale.

Da evitare.

01   Fly on the Wall (03:44)

You can dance through the night
Rock n roll music itching to fight
Makin love drunk or stoned
Lookin for dollars
Get broken-boned
It's a game too tough to tame
Ends up the same
Sweatin out the rain

I was trapped like a fly on the wall
I was caged lke a zoo animal
No escape from the fate that you make
You're a snake, I've had all I can take
Watch out, there's a fly on the wall

Take a chance, take a bite
Rock n roll devil, take me tonight
Like a bitch makin heat
Beatin on my chest
Lickin at my feet
It's a game too tough to tame
Ending up the same
Sweatin in the rain
So watch out, there's a fly on the wall

I was trapped like a fly on the wall
I was caged like a zoo animal
No escape from the fate that you make
You're a snake, I've had all I can take

There's a fly on the wall

02   Shake Your Foundations (04:10)

03   First Blood (03:45)

04   Danger (04:22)

Don't talk to strangers, keep away from the danger
Don't talk to strangers who smile
Keep away from the danger all the time, you just keep away
Just keep away

Red lights are flashing, there's been a misunderstanding
I'm Bruised and broke and bandaged
Through drinking all that brandy
I was, under the table but I came back for more
Gotta hit that bottle but my head hit the floor

Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers
Stranger, danger, don't you talk
Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers
Danger, danger, don't talk keep away

Red lights still flashing
People all still dancing in my head
I've done with thinking, about what to do
Another bout of drinking
Just one before I'm through
I was just raising hell I wasn't doing no harm
The cops could not appreciate my natural charm

I'm a
Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers
Stranger, danger, don't you talk, don't talk
Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers
Danger, danger, don't talk keep away

Don't talk to strangers

Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers
Stranger, danger, don't you talk, don't talk
Danger, danger , don't talk to strangers
Danger, danger , don't talk keep away
Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers
Stranger, danger, don't you talk, don't you talk
Danger, danger, don't talk to strangers
Danger, danger

Don't you go talking to no stranger in this town

05   Sink the Pink (04:15)

Put your gear into fire
Lay your bullets on the ground
Turn your head to desire
There's a woman going down
She said she'll rough you up, all the way
And she gonna spit you out, count your days
She says choice is yours, casually
So why don't you do what comes naturally

CHORUS:
Sink the pink, it's all the fashion
Drink the drink, it's old-fashioned
Gimme water, gimme wine
Gonna show you a good time
Sink the pink
Sink the pink

Got a fever runnin' high
Give you wings to make you fly
She school you like a fool
She make you break the rules
She wanna get a shot, hit the spot
Then I'm gonna rack 'em up, get that hot
She said make it good, satisfy
You know that woman got jealous eyes

REPEAT CHORUS

Did you sink it on me?
OOOOH!Yeah!
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!

REPEAT CHORUS

Ow1
Ow1
Ouch

06   Playing With Girls (03:44)

07   Stand Up (03:53)

Put on the headset, get on
the stage
Out on a midnight escapade
Didn't want to steal your
thunder
Wouldn't want to play your
game
Makin' all the headlines
Gettin' on the front page
Didn't even know her number
Didn't even know her name

[CHORUS]
Stand up, stand up and take
it
Stand up, stand up and make
it
Stand up, stand up and face
it
Stand up

Get on the red dress, slip
on the lace
Up for a high heel and a
pretty face
Woman wanna get you under
Woman wanna get you tame
Lovin' on a hot night
Stokin' up the flame
Didn't wanna know her number
Didn't wanna know her name

[CHORUS]

(You can make it)

[CHORUS]

Di  Snowblind

 È imbarazzante scrivere una recensione su un gruppo che è leggenda.

 La colonna sonora perfetta per una serata in un pub dove il connubio AC/DC-birra ha funzionato alla grande!


Di  Battlegods

 "Fly On The Wall è un cd sottovalutato e poco apprezzato, senza sapere che contiene brani che sono i cavalli di battaglia della band."

 "Playing With The Girls è una vera mazzata sui denti... il pezzo più potente del lotto, lo definisco il primo pezzo heavy metal degli AC/DC!"
