Fun with Photoshop...Here's the booklet insert I just made for my AC/DC 1980-88 Mix CD

[Amerigo Vespucci]

And yeah, I know "You Shook Me All Night Long" is missing, but I am really, really, really sick of that one.

Design is OBVIOUSLY based, maybe a bit too literally, on the track "This House Is On Fire"...but sometimes literal is good. Like in this instance.

CD is 79 minutes, 50 seconds. Tracks ripped from the CDs @ 320 KBPS, CD burned in Nero with "Normalize" on all (for consistent volume on a CD with multiple sources, without spikes and valleys) and 2 seconds overlap between tracks (that's how it fit in an 80 minute space).

Next up will be the best of the Bon Scott years.

[RandomThoughts]

1. What I find most interesting about that is that many of there songs.

Have a different view then me. For many years that use to keep me from listening to them, then I could listen but had to ignore what I thought they meant, interestingly, I can change what they mean now.

So they can actually hold the same meaning and energy to me now as songs people would say are from a different view. I find that interesting. I been trying to figure that, I think it is mostly about turning, but not 100% sure on it.



In other words, they can be part of stories not part of those ideas. And can mean something completely different in a different sequence.

2. AC/DC is basically a sex, drugs, and rock-n-roll band- heavy on the sex

with a few mentions of Satan and Hell for good measure. Probably the least complicated hard rock band in rock history, both lyrically and musically. But they rock and I've liked them ever since I bought Back in Black back in the early 80s.

3. cool cover

... in its burning hotness. Flattened out like this the centre top looks like a skull, though that effect will be lost alas, when it's folded into the case.

I love making CD covers.
