have not found to much info on this session ? just checking to see if you all have any info on mic's or how they recorded drums and guitars for this badass record.
2 inch 16 track?
thanks

back in black was included in the 'bonfire' boxed set for some reason. i remember them saying that that album had the spirit of bon in it, and that most of it was written with him, but i don't remember them saying anything about him being there for the sessions.

I heard that the snare drum was tuned so low that it had to be relplaced after every take.

Wow, kinda pricey! Couldn't they just have replaced the skin?

Badum - tss.

Yeah that Rudd fella hit's em hard sure enough...In "Let There Be Rock",
the live in Paris 79 gig...You can see Phill Rudd change his snare drum twice (I think) in the first couple of songs.

Well, it was a big budget record.

I really can't think of a witty way to preface this link. Sorry.

Phil Rudd's cymbals:

Hi-hat, Crash, Crash, Crash, Crash, Crash.

No ride.
