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.

In the annals of rock history, few albums loom as large as this one. Released in July 1980, just five months after the death of lead singer Bon Scott, it stands as a memorial and a declaration of defiance — a testament to the power of momentum, the importance of finding the right voice, and the enduring appeal of doing one thing exceptionally well. In other words, it represents the perfection of a formula, the moment when everything the band had been building toward crystallised into its most accessible, enduring form.
