Guesting on the The Rock Show With Johnnie Walker aired by the BBC, AC/DC guitarist Angus Young named Chuck Berry as his rock god during the program's "Rock God" segment. Check out the interview here.
Young: "Chuck Berry was probably one of the great guitar people for rock and roll. He combined a lot of elements; he combined blues, a bit of jazz and his own unique style. He melded all these kind of different genres of music, but he seemed to bring it together and bring it out in that rock and roll style. So plain and simple, but it was so effective. I saw him live once when I was younger. I just loved his stage presence and how he performed. He was one of those people, when he got on a stage, he owned it."
AC/DC recently released a music video for their single, "Through The Mists Of Time", featured on the band's latest album, Power Up. Get the album here, watch the new clip below.
The video is a rock and roll museum tour through an exhibition of the band’s incredible history. Based on a concept by Angus Young, Director Najeeb Tarazi and creative director Josh Cheuse used footage shot by Clemens Habicht of each of the five band members in five separate shoots around the world. They then enlisted Mathematic, a Paris based visual effects studio, to combine all the elements so the band could take the stage together to perform the fan favorite from Power Up, almost one year to the day that the highly-anticipated album was announced.
