Touch Too Much

Alright! New semester, so I'm going to start it off right, with some current, alternating or direct. This is very fitting, as the lead guitarist, Angus Young, always dressed as a schoolboy for live performances. Touch Too Much is one of my favorite songs by AC/DC, filled with the classic lyrical work of Bon Scott and the stunning rhythm and lead guitar styling of Malcom and Angus Young, respectively. It was released on their sixth album, Highway to Hell, in 1979, and was the last album that Bon Scott helped create. Bon Scott passed away the following year, while the band was working on their next album, which was  known as Back in Black. When researching this song, I noticed that many of the single's artwork was reversed, which showed the guitarists and bassist as playing left-handed, go ahead, look it up, it may get a chuckle out of you. Anyways, I would describe this song as both jagged and fluid, you can hear the classic AC/DC rough sound, but it also has the velvety-soft feel to the bass and rhythm guitar that is wondrously appealing. Now the lyrical work on this song is something, this song is filthy, and I love it! I hope you enjoy it as much as I.
