.."We believe the songs on any of our albums belong together. If we were on iTunes, we know a certain percentage of people would only download two or three songs from the album. We don't think that represents us musically." - Angus Young (AC/DC Lead Guitarist/Frontman)
AC/DC does not want they're music sold online. This is probably because they want people to buy the whole album, not one or two songs. It could also be because they don't want they're music on the computer at all to prevent illegal downloading of they're songs, which would make them lose album sales.

Being probably the Biggest Band of All-Time, and the Greatest Rock N Roll band of all time, they probably influenced every band after them. Countless bands have gone into the studio trying to get that "AC/DC sound", but have failed. One example of an old band that was influenced was Van Halen and their song "Panama", and example of a heavily influenced new band could be Airbourne. Metallica was also influenced by AC/DC.

What year was the first rock n' roll record produced?
There are many candidates for the title of the first rock and roll record. Numerous recordings mark the development of rock and roll as a separate musical form. Some songs are cited as having important lyrical content, others are seen as offering important melodic, harmonic or rhythmic influence. These songs include not only hits from the early 1950s when the music emerged on the national and international scene, but also various other precursors to what would become known as Rock and Roll. Wild cards from the 1920s and 1930s that seemed then to have come from nowhere but now clearly foreshadow rock and roll: "My Daddy Rocks Me (with One Good Steady Roll)" by Trixie Smith (1922). Although it was played with a backbeat and was one of the first "around the clock" lyrics, this slow minor-key blues was by no means rock and roll in the modern sense. On the other hand, the title certainly underscores the original meaning attached to those two words (both of four letters), rock and roll.
"Pine Top's Boogie Woogie" by Clarence "Pinetop" Smith (1928) was one of the first hit "boogie woogie" recordings, and the first to include classic rock and roll references to "the girl with the red dress on" being told to "not move a peg" until she could "shake that thing" and "mess around". "Tiger Rag" by the Washboard Rhythm Kings (1931) was a virtually out of control performance with screeching vocals, a strange tiger roar, and rocking washboard. This recording is standing in for many performances by spasm bands, jug bands, and skiffle groups that have the same wild, informal feel that early rock and roll had.
