as indicative of the decade to come--one that, fittingly, this band helped defin
e with its decadently exaggerated, bowdlerized blues-rock. In shrieker Robert Pl
ant, ex-Yardbird Jimmy Page found a vocalist who could match his guitar pyrotech
nics, and the band pounded out its music with swaggering ferocity and Richter-sc
ale-worthy volume. Pumping up blues classics such as Otis Rushs I Cant Quit You 
Baby and Howlin Wolfs How Many More Times into near-cartoon parodies, the band a
lso hinted at things to come with the manic Communication Breakdown and the lumb
ering set stopper Dazed and Confused. <I>--Billy Altman</I>

Source: Amazon.com essential recording - Most critics complain <I>Back in Black<
/I>, the album AC/DC recorded after the death of their original lead screamer Bo
n Scott, is ridiculously juvenile, obvious, snickering, bludgeoning, derivative,
 single-minded about sex and booze, a big cartoon. All true, of course, and--on 
rock n ragers like What Do You Do For Money Honey, You Shook Me All Night Long, 
and the title track--all great. As Scotts replacement Brian Johnson reminds us, 
loud and crunchy, no-holds-barred rock and roll aint noise pollution...it makes 
good, good sense. Never trust anyone who refuses to drink domestic beer, laugh a
t the Three Stooges, or crank <I>Back in Black</I>. <i>--David Cantwell</i>

Source: Amazon.com - At the time of its release, <I>One Hot Minute</I> was viewe
d as the beginning of a new direction for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Guitarist J
ohn Frusciante had departed and former Janes Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro jo
ined the ranks after some false starts with short-lived replacements. Band chemi
stry here isnt quite up to past standards. Navarro stretches out throughout the 
album, imbuing tunes with a heavy dose of hard rock and psychedelia and providin
g a stark contrast from Frusciantes dexterous noodling. Tracks such as Warped an
d Aeroplane display a band prone to exploring a less frenetic hard rock, while S
hallow Be Thy Game sounds like the old band. Frusciante eventually returned to t
he fold, so this 1995 collection now stands as a curious intermission for the Pe
ppers. <I>--Rob OConnor</I>

Source: Amazon.com essential recording - What <I>Highway to Hell</I> has that <I
>Back in Black</I> doesnt is Bon Scott, AC/DCs original lead singer who died jus
t months after this album was released. Scott had a rusty, raspy, scream of a vo
ice, like he might break into a coughing fit at any moment. In other words, on c
runchy, hook-heavy metal classics like the title track, and on Get It Hot which 
is more roadhouse rock than metal, he had the perfect instrument for such wild-l
iving anthems. Too perfect, it turned out.  <i>--David Cantwell</i>
