S5E3 - Australia 🇦🇺 AC/DC (Overrated) & The Vines (Underrated)
Manage episode 342552405 series 3268411
G'day mates and welcome to an exploration of two of Australia's biggest musical exports...
AC/DC is one of the biggest bands in the world - their album Back in Black is the second best-selling album OF ALL TIME! While Fran & Babs can appreciate their career longevity, how much do they actually like the music?
Babs has been a fan of The Vines since they exploded onto the scene in the early noughties but remains distraught they're mainly known for their early work. She maintains they've continuously put out good music and frontman Craig Nicholls was hard done by in the press. Can she convince Fran that The Vines have more great tunes alongside their classics?
Babs recommends reading 'Why The Vines deserve a serious reappraisal they'll never get' by Al Newstead.
