Brendan O'brien
Looks like he is working on the new DC album. http://www.thelivingend.com/2006/
Nothing dissing you, or the webpage itself, but with all the rumors that have been circulating, I'll have to put this on the "I'll believe it when I see it," list. I personally wouldn't mind George Young or even Mutt Lange doing another album. Both are great producers, and both brought out a different side of AC/DC each time. Now, Brendan O'Brien has worked with bands like Jackyl and Aerosmith, so he could do an AC/DC album, seeing as Jackyl's sound is so similar. It's a shame Bruce Fairbairn is no longer with us, he produced "The Razor's Edge" and helped spark AC/DC's 90s comeback.
Yeah Bruce Fairbairn was a good Produce but he died in 1998 or 1999. The Razors Edge is one of my favourits and the first AC/DC album i have heard when i was a little child.
Actually (with respect to the deads) Razor's was a little "polished". The songs are great but if you listen to them on a live concert they do sound better. P.S. I've just finished my annual "listening thunderstruck day". 35 times in a row and it's get better and better (the original and from every live version i could find)
I agree with you there Sap. While I like The Razor's Edge album, it was lacking the rough and dirty feel of the 70's and early 80's. It definitely fit the time period it was released and was a big money maker, but it just didn't feel like the rest of the AC/DC albums.
Here is another rumor that supports this post: http://acdc-bootlegs.com/news/articles/?id=137 Again, this is posted by a member of another band so I'm still considering this a rumor.
