March 5, 2007

A video clip of AC/DC members Brian Johnson and Cliff Williams performing the band's classic song "Back in Black" at a Hurricane Katrina benefit concert in 2005 has been posted online at www.acdc-live.com.

AC/DC guitarist Angus Young was presented with the "Legend" award by Kerrang! magazine at the 13th annual Kerrang! Awards in London on August 24, 2006.

Two classic AC/DC albums reached new sales heights last May, according to the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America). The band's 1979 album, "Highway to Hell" — the last studio release to feature late frontman Bon Scott — has been certified septuple platinum for sales in excess of seven million copies in the United States. Meanwhile, 1990's "The Razor's Edge" has passed the five-million mark in the U.S., earning it quintuple-platinum status.

AC/DC's "Back in Black" album was certified in 2005 for U.S. shipments of 21 million copies, tying it for fifth place with BILLY JOEL's "Greatest Hits Vol. 1 & II" on the Recording Industry Assn. of America's all-time best-sellers list.
