For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)

The guns literally came out blazing for the tour that surrounded the band\'s chart-topping 1981 album. In fact, this album\'s title track would provide the bombastic close to most of their concerts in the years to follow. In a career not lacking in bold statements, \"for those about to rock / we salute you\" seemed like the boldest of all–the new rock gods honoring their flock. Brian Johnson\'s second album with the band also took the group further away from their blues-y roots and straight into the heart of hard rock. The streamlined, clean riffs of \"I Put the Finger On You\" and \"Let\'s Get it Up\" were template-setting arena rock numbers that showed off choruses that were more like soccer chants.
