Brian Johnson (4) (1947–)

Okay, I'm not the biggest AC/DC fan. I'm one of those freaks that never liked Bon's voice, so I basically paid no attention to them until Back in Black. And even then, while I love that album, I'm honestly more of a "greatest hits" fan of AC/DC overall.

But this autobiography is just fun. I enjoyed the absolute hell out of it. Johnson has a very down-to-earth hilarious narrative voice, made better when you hear him read his own words for the audio version.

I was literally laughing out loud show more several times with his stories, and I've gained a whole new appreciation for him.

And yes, this basically takes it up to the point where he's brought in to record and tour for Back in Black, and it stops there. Just like Lenny Kravitz did with his biography up to the release of his first album. Deal with it. Just strap in for a fun ride. With Brian leading the way, who cares where we end up? We know we're going to laugh all the way. show less

I'm not really into cars, but I'm into good music and people who are really into something. Which makes this book a treat. People who are really fascinated by something, get me hooked. And on top of that, you get a touch of an English language that your average book will not provide you. That said, if you like cars, you will most likely find a soul mate in Mr Brian Johnson. Please enjoy, regardless of motif.

Great read, but if you looking for a book about Brian Johnson and his life in AC-DC this isn't for you. You like reading about cars and want to know about the ones Brian Johnson owns or loves and hear short stories about them then read this book.

Nearly 100 pages before you get your first bit of sex, drugs, and rock and roll.
I'll get back to you if it improves, then again, I might just fall asleep.
Got to confess, I was never a fan of AcDc, so the omens aren't looking too good.
