Excerpts from Blabbermouth:
__________________________
In a recent interview with Matt Pinfield of 95.5 KLOS's "New & Approved" show, legendary Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash was asked to name his favorite AC/DC album starting out. He said (as transcribed by Blabbermouth.net): "[1978's] 'Powerage'. Still probably one of my favorite AC/DC records. But at the time when I got into 'em, the record that came out was [1979's] 'Highway To Hell'. And that's how I became familiar with them. And then, because of that record, I heard 'Powerage', and I was like, 'Whoa, this record.' That was, really, that got me into the whole AC/DC catalog. And then [AC/DC singer] Bon Scott died. And that was just… It was, like, 'I just got into these guys.' And then really in pretty quick succession, Brian came into it."
Slash continued: "One of the biggest years for metal in the '80s was 1980, and you had 'Back In Black' come out and then you had Ozzy's 'Diary Of A Madman' come out and all that. And Sabbath's 'Heaven And Hell'. It was a huge, huge year for rock.'
Circling back to his love for "Powerage", Slash said: "'Down Payment Blues' was the song that really stuck with me. It's still, to this day, one of my favorite all-time rock and roll songs."
