Classic Albums. Hosted by Stevie Nix
Not all albums stand the test of time, but plenty do and Australian music critic Stevie Nix will bring one to you each week. He'll cover all eras and most genres and tell you why each record is so revered and, equally, why it deserves to be. And he only uses six songs to do it.

Back In Black by AC/DC
Back In Black transformed personal tragedy into a universal artistic statement. It transcended traditional rock album expectations and represented a perfect fusion of technical musical expertise and raw emotional energy. The record's musical complexity is often overlooked in discussions of its raw power, but the Young brothers' ability to create complex musical landscapes using seemingly simple rock structures revolutionised guitar-based music - and Brian Johnson's vocal style, dramatically different from Bon Scott's, brought a new dimension to the band's sound.
