| | AC/DC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | AC/DC have entered into a long-term, multi-album deal for new recordings, which will be released through Epic Records. | | | AC/DC is currently working on a new studio album, but as of April 2006, no release date has been set. | | | Whilst AC/DC themselves were initially critical of the British punk movement of the late 1970s, many artists within the scene drew on AC/DC's energetic, basic and (as some may argue) anti-commercialist approach to rock music. |

| | Madonna's more upbeat songs "Music" and "Ray Of Light" were big hits on Hot AC, but were not played on Soft AC stations, which are more likely to play her songs "I'll Remember", "Crazy For You", or "Power Of Goodbye". | | | One big impetus for the evolution of the AC radio format was the popularity of easy listening stations, stations with music specifically designed to be purely ambient, listened to while at work or otherwise in the background. | | | Soft AC, however, which has never minded keeping songs in high rotation literally for years in some cases, and plays a larger amount of older music, especially classic RandB, soul, and '60s and '70s music, than Hot AC, does not appear necessarily to be facing similar pressures to expand its format. |

| | AC/DC recruited singer Brian Johnson and quickly released Back in Black, arguably their defining album and spawning undoubtedly their biggest hit, "You Shook Me All Night Long." The song reached as high as No.4 on the American music charts and pushed Back in Black to sales of over 5 million copies in the US alone. | | | AC/DC followed with Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, an album which raised both their popularity and the ire of the Australian Parliament, who questioned the band's morality. | | | AC/DC's international stardom grew from the roots of tragedy and despair. |

| | Hot AC leaned into Adult CHR and had all the attributes of the CHR format but without the teen based or hard rock music. | | | Mainstream AC will be the music of Hot AC without the Pop Alternative and with the most contemporary of ballads without the 70s and 80s traditional AC ballads. | | | This era will generally target 25-34-year-olds and be a contender for Hot AC listening. |

| | Rock AC A station which plays rock music released largely during the past fifteen or twenty years, designed for the general rock listener who is not actively interested in following current releases. | | | As of December, 1998, the Billboard Hot 100 chart began to include popular album tracks not commercially released as singles, and began weighing a song`s airplay three times as heavily as a song`s sales. | | | The Billboard Hot 100 chart is therefore a measure of which songs are being played on CHR stations which, in turn, base their playlists on Billboard`s Hot 100 chart. |

| | Hot AC, has always been dependent on Top 40 to help break new music, and the hits of today on Top 40 are decidedly pop and pop rhythm. | | | So what you’ll be seeing with Hot AC music in the near future is that Pop Rock/Pop Alternative music will be less of a dominant part of the current/gold universe and Pop and Rhythm will be playing a much more significant role in the music mix. | | | A great Hot AC in addition to hit music for the target must provide entertainment, lifestyle news that makes a woman feel in touch with what going on in the world, all of which is delivered by compelling personalities. |
