An autobiography written with intensity and electricity, emotion and humor. A delightful narrative from the "man with the flat cap."

Brian Johnson recalls his life and unfolds it in this book in small episodes, in stories that intertwine with each other, just as it would happen if he were in a pub with his friends and, between large glasses of beer and lots of laughter, he recounted how he went from the regional glam rock band, Geordie, to becoming the lead singer of the most explosively electric rock band, AC/DC.
In 1980, the unexpected opportunity arose to vie for the position of Bon Scott, their singer. The way he describes his first meeting with the group and the crew is delightful, how he managed to earn their trust almost from the first moment, without even realizing it himself. The acquaintance with the two brothers Angus and Malcolm Young, the heart of AC/DC, gave a new cocktail to the group's sound that was immediately established. Johnson's voice is exactly what AC/DC wanted: the sound of electrocution.
The album Back in Black, the first AC/DC album without Scott, who died leaving the band in absolute black - as its cover is - the first with Brian Johnson's voice and participation in the lyrics, met with overwhelming success: It became the best-selling album in rock history.
