Geocache Description:


One of the most recognized songs in the world by one of the most iconic rock bands in Rock n Roll history. The song is also the tittle of the album it was released on, which is the second best selling album of all-time behind Michael Jackson's Thriller.

Please use extreme stealth while searching for this cache.

Released on 25 July, 1980, Back in Black was the first AC/DC album recorded without lead singer Bon Scott, who died on 19 February, 1980 at the age of 33. The album was dedicated to Scott by the remaining members of the band.

The band considered disbanding following Scott's death, but they ultimately decided to continue and shortly thereafter hired Brian Johnson as their new lead singer and lyricist.

Producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange, who had previously worked with AC/DC on the Highway to Hell album, was again brought in to produce the Back in Black Album. The recordings were made at Compass Point Studios in Nassau, Bahamas, and Electric Lady Studios in New York, where the album was also mixed.

As of June 2011, the album has sold an estimated 50 million copies worldwide, making it the highest-selling album by a band, the best-selling hard rock album of all-time, and the best-selling album ever released by an Australian musical act.

Congratulations to Firenze! on FTF
