The Razors Edge

And I knew there was no help, no help from you

ACDC released this in 1990 as the lead single from their 12th studio album, The Razor's Edge.

It was number four in Australia, number one in Finland, put a pin in that.

Number five on the Billboard album rock tracks, sold over 15 million records, has become a real venue event, like a sporting event kind of song.

He is 79.

What album was this? "Razor's Edge"? "Money Talks." That, that it does.

That it does.

All right, uh, we are gonna be talking about a couple of Supreme Court rule...

to go get it.

Like, and there was anticipation and now they just drop a single at midnight and you hear it the next morning on Spotify and, and everything's at your reach.

If you want to make a playlist of your 12 favorite artists, you can just do that.

We couldn't do that.

a good warmup song.

In the weight room at the high school.

So this is the lead single off their 1990 album, The Razor's Edge, which was my first ACDC album.

I'd heard a couple songs, but I'd never owned any ACDC prior to that.

because like Roman liked TNT so much I decided to love Thunderstruck like he loved TNT

okay gotcha the title track The Razor's Edge uh yeah

yeah

okay although i am i listen to it but i i didn't like it like as much of some of the songs i put like i said here in the uh top five

you.

Yeah, we've all got two albums.

And you

still invited us.

I've been a Skeeters fan for a while.

I first saw them open for Jamie at Gaston at Center Stage several years ago.

And I tried to get something from every album, from both albums, so I kind of did it.

I got my top five and three honorables, so there's four and four from each album.

Send you on your way.

The long, the album versions of these songs, they kind of dip down, they fade away, and then they come back up, and then they have like about a minute and a half of just excitement.

And I said, oh, this is the long version.

I love this.

They said, when hell freezes over, we'll get back together and do some stuff for you kids.

And apparently hell froze over.

Then they released an album called Hell is Froze Over.

Or Hell Freezes Over.

It's just, well, any two musicians really, but yeah, it's interesting.

I mean, I was just looking at their discography because, I mean, the last album I'd say that I know well enough to sort of say that I know it beyond the singles is Razor's Edge.

Yeah.

And that was 1990.

And then they went into five years after that was Ball Breaker, five years after that was Stiff Up a Lip, eight years Black Eyes, six years Rock or Bust, six years Power Up.

So... long spells between albums which is fine whatever I mean that's okay but it does sort of suggest that it really is sort of well let's release an album so we can go back out on the road

yeah but no and like Razor's Edge probably the last great one like there's good stuff on Ball Breaker I'm actually really warming up to that record the more I hear it Stiff Upper Lip is even better than that but it's still not as good as Razor's Edge and then you kind of go like Black Ice is like half a great album and half a really bad one because it's like it's way too long It's kiss hot in the shade.

Like if they would have cut eight songs, it would have been so much better.
