The Beat Brothers did some great work lyrically, musically, and in-studio production-ally. I myself have a large collection of their work (thanks in no small part to you). So I understand why you'd argue for them as the greatest. BUT the Beatles walked so AC/DC could run. And that’s exactly what AC/DC does. Hard rock every song — no breaks, no slow bits, no self discovery. From the start, they’ve had a clear view of what rock is and just went for it (now for 50+ years). The seamless handoff from singer Bon Scott (RIP) on Highway to Hell in 1979 to Brian Johnson on Back in Black in 1980 is evidence of their singular, unbroken vision.
