AC/DC

Episode Synopsis

VH1 reveals the story behind Angus Young's schoolboy uniform and how AC/DC managed to take their raucous act out of Australia to become a worldwide phenomenon. In emotional interviews, the rockers sadly talk about the death of former front man Bon Scott and how -- in a twist of fate -- their first album without him would be one of the top 10 best selling in history. The band has endured attacks by critics and censors, a link to serial killer Richard Ramirez and personal addictions. And after 25 years, AC/DC just keeps on rocking.
