Books
"Let There Be Rock - The Story of AC/DC" will be re-released on May 1, 2009 featuring a new chapter, an interview with Angus Young from November 4, 2008, new photographs and an audio CD of an interview done with all five band members (including Bon Scott) from their first American tour on December 4, 1977.
"Let There Be Rock - The Story of AC/DC", originally released in October 2006, has now been printed in seven languages.
"Let There Be Rock" is the story of AC/DC written by rock journalist Susan Masino, who met the band during their first American tour in 1977. Over the years, she remained in contact with them, watching AC/DC climb to international stardom. Since 1977, Susan has interviewed the band many times and their friendship has lasted nearly three decades. Now she tells the true story of AC/DC's illustrious career and how they became one of the true great rock 'n' roll bands in history.
The book traces the band's history, from their beginnings in Sydney, Australia in the early 1970s to trail-blazing the U.S. mainstream to the devastating death of lead singer Bon Scott in 1980. The band pulled together and rebounded to the top of the charts with new front man, Brian Johnson and the watershed album "Back in Black". Through it all, AC/DC continues their quest to build a legion of new fans in the 21st century.

It was such a culture shock to have my daughter start school and for us stand in one place all year but it's been a massive healing time for everyone and just as well we did stand still considering what has been manifesting!! It may seem so very hard at times but the difficulties are the mirror for the beautiful possibiliies inside of us and between us! I appreciate it when you send me warm fuzzies and updates about your own experiences and ways of being. Please don't stop letting me know how you are and what you are finding out. You are often my teacher and an inspiration. x x x
