AC/DC

 Today in 2012 AC/DC released the Live album Live at River Plate

Sydney, Australia Hard rock, blues rock, rock and roll
Status;Active
Years active 1973 (1973)–present
Featuring one of the most recognizeable images in rock (diminutive guitarist Angus Young in his trademark schoolboy uniform), AC/DC has been in the business for more than forty years, scarcely changing their style from album to album but continuing to maintain a large following due to their simplistic yet effective hard rock and energetic live performances. They are undeniably Australia's most well-known rock export, and their style is one of the most recognizeable, and imitated, in the history of hard rock, rising to worldwide superstardom around the time of Highway To Hell, one of their seminal works. They've enduring setbacks in recent years (the failing health of Angus' brother Malcolm, the legal troubles of drummer Phil Rudd, resulting in both taking a leave of absence from the band), but Angus and crew soldier on.

Live at River Plate is a live album by Australian hard rock band AC/DC. It was released on 19 November 2012.[2]
The album was recorded during AC/DC's Black Ice World Tour at River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires on 4 December 2009. Video footage from the same concert was previously released officially on DVD and Blu-ray in May 2011.
With the release of the album in the UK, the top ten of the UK Rock & Metal Singles chart was composed of all AC/DC songs, with "Back in Black", "Highway to Hell", "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Thunderstruck", "Whole Lotta Rosie", "Shoot to Thrill", "Hells Bells", "It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)", "For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)", and "T.N.T.", all charting within the top ten in corresponding order. However, several songs in the chart were actually the studio versions. This was also a result of all of AC/DC's albums being re-released on iTunes at the time of Live at River Plate's release
