Back in Black, AC/DC's 1980 album, barely lets up for a second, and "Have a Drink On Me" is the record at its rowdiest, a round-buying barroom stomp with Brian Johnson hollering the lead vocal. He wrote it with Angus and Malcolm Young, and the brothers' guitars do what they do best, chugging and slashing with not a note wasted.

Robert John "Mutt" Lange produced it, with Tony Platt engineering, and the sound is huge and dry, every chord landing like a slammed glass, while Cliff Williams and Phil Rudd hold down a groove so solid you could build a pub on it.
