"Mistress for Christmas" is a track from The Razors Edge, AC/DC's twelfth studio album, which arrived in September 1990. Angus and Malcolm Young wrote it and play the guitars, Brian Johnson sings, Cliff Williams holds down the bass, and Chris Slade is on drums, on what turned out to be the only studio album he made with the band. Bruce Fairbairn produced the sessions at Little Mountain Sound in Vancouver, with Mike Fraser engineering and mixing.
The album was a big comeback, riding "Thunderstruck", "Are You Ready" and "Moneytalks" back to the kind of heights AC/DC hadn't seen since the late 1970s and early 1980s, even if Rolling Stone's John Mendelsohn grumbled that it sounded too much like their old records.
