Is Brian Johnson reuniting with AC/DC to record a new album?
Nick Reilly | Aug 8, 2018 8:23 am
难道Brian Johnson将回归AC/DC并录制新专辑吗?
Nick Reilly 2018 08 08
He's been spotted with drummer Phil Rudd in Vancouver...
他跟鼓手Phil Rudd一起在温哥华被看见...
AC/DC are rumoured to be working on new music with former frontman Brian
Johnson and ex-drummer Phil Rudd, after the pair were spotted together in
Vancouver.
从他们在温哥华被看到後,小道消息指出,AC/DC将与前主唱Brian Johnson(以下简称
Brian)及前鼓手Phil Rudd(以下简称Phil),一起为了新专辑努力。
Johnson was forced to leave the band in 2016 after suffering hearing loss,
before being replaced by Axl Rose. Rudd, meanwhile, departed in 2015 after a
string of publicised legal problems.
由於严重的听力损害,Brian在2016的时候被迫离开乐团,并被Axl Rose取代主唱的位置。
而Phil,则是在2015的时候,因为一连串的且广为人知的法律问题而离去。
But it seems that the classic line-up could be getting together once more
after the pair were spotted in the Canadian city, where the rock icons have
recorded all their albums over the last two decades.
由於温哥华是这个摇滚乐指标乐团在过去二十年录制专辑的地方,看起来这个经典的
组合,会在他们两位在这个加拿大城市被看到後,有着重聚的可能。
A photo posted on Twitter shows Johnson and Rudd relaxing outside the city’s
Warehouse Studios – and it’s claimed that the rest of the band are in tow
too.
从推特上的一张照片,可以看到Brian看Phil在Warehouse Studios外面休息,而这个推
特文也宣称说其余团员也在这里。
The rumors are no more: Brian Johnson and Phil Rudd are back in AC/DC
(in some sort of capacity). What. A. World. #ACDC

「已经不再是传言了:Brian跟Phil回到了AC/DC(在某种程度上)。这!世!界!

Vancouver website The Straight claims to have been contacted by a local who
spoke to Stevie Young – the nephew of guitarist Angus Young.
温哥华的网站 The Straight 宣称说他们接触到了一个当地人,他有跟跟Stevie Young
(Angus Young的侄子)讲到话。
“The guy tells me that he had a quick chat with a couple of members of AC/DC
in downtown Vancouver this morning”, The Straight’s Steve Newton claimed.
「这个男人跟我说,他今天早上在温哥华跟AC/DC的几个成员聊了一下。」 The Straight
的Steve Newton这样表示。
“One of the rockers that he talked to was Stevie Young, Angus Young’s
nephew, who took over the rhythm-guitar spot in AC/DC from Angus’s brother
Malcolm in 2014 when Mal started suffering from the health problems,
including dementia, that he would succumb to last November.
「他跟Angus的侄子──Stevie讲到了话,而Stevie在2014年的时候,取代了Malcolm
Young在乐团的节奏吉他手的位置,原因跟Malcolm的失智症有关。」
…the other rocker my source talked to was none other than, get this: Phil
Rudd! Yes, Phil Rudd, the longtime AC/DC drummer who was himself replaced
behind the kit by Chris “Thunderstruck” Slade in 2015 for the band’s Rock
or Bust World Tour.”
「我的消息来源也跟另一个摇滚乐手讲到话,更不得了的,听着──Phil Rudd!
对!就是Phil,长久以来AC/DC的鼓手,却在2015年的Rock or Bust世界巡演时,被
Chris『如遭雷击』Slade取代的那个。」
A photo emerged today (August 9) showing Angus and Stevie Young also outside
Warehouse studios.
而今日(八月九日),另一张照片出现了,告诉我们Angus和Stevie也在Warehouse studios
外面。
Angus Young and Stevie Young spotted. And then there was one…

AC/DC’s Vancouver Photos Raise Three Big Questions
AC/DC在温哥华的照片揭露了三个大问题
Nick DeRiso August 9, 2018
The prospect of AC/DC's possible reunion naturally sparks both speculation
and debate. There is still so much fans don't know, from the nature of their
supposed reunion to how this updated lineup might work.
AC/DC有可能重聚的展望,自然引起了推测与争论。许多粉丝仍不知道他们的重聚,以及
这样的组合可能有什麽成果。
Whatever Angus Young has up his school boy-uniform sleeve, they've taken a
very, very long road to this place. The Rock or Bust era left AC/DC battered
and nearly broken, with Angus as the last remaining original member. Newly
released pictures out of Vancouver appear to show an attempt to put the
available pieces back together again. It won't be easy.
无论Angus的男学生制服上有什麽,他们已经走过了这麽多年了。Rock or Bust时期让
AC/DC受到重大打击也差点崩解,目前只剩下了Angus是元老的成员。温哥华的那张照片
显示了他们想要重组的打算,但这并不容易。
AC/DC lost founding rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young to a dementia diagnosis
before Rock or Bust even arrived back in late 2014. Then drummer Phil Rudd
departed amid a string of legal problems. Nephew Stevie Young took over for
Malcolm Young, and former member Chris Slade returned to the drum chair, for
a supporting tour.
AC/DC在Rock or Bust到来之前,就失去了成立时的节奏吉他手Malcolm,紧接着鼓手Phil
也因为一连串的法律问题,离开了乐团。侄子Stevie接替了Malcolm,而前鼓手Chris也作
为巡演的乐手前来支援。
But AC/DC's struggles continued. Singer Brian Johnson suddenly left the road
to deal with a worsening issue with his hearing. He was replaced with Axl
Rose, and AC/DC gamely honored their performance contracts – but not before
bassist Cliff Williams decided to retire once the scheduled dates were
completed.
但AC/DC的挣扎仍然持续着,主唱Brian因为听力损害更加严重,突然离开了乐团。他被Axl
Rose给取代。AC/DC仍然表现良好...直到贝斯手Cliff Williams在巡演结束时决定退休。
Few could hazard a guess as to what might happen next, though there was talk
that a Rose-led concert had been filmed. Johnson made a few tentative steps
back, and Rudd left his troubles behind. Yet the prospects of another AC/DC
project seemed to be dwindling, as Malcolm Young eventually succumbed to his
illness and Rose refocused on Guns N' Roses.
很少人可以猜到之後将会发生什麽事情,虽然说有消息传出Axl主导的演唱会已经被拍摄,
Brian有几次尝试要回归,Phil已经把麻烦给处理完了等等。但AC/DC下一个作品的期望
似乎日渐减少,因为Malcolm的离世,以及Axl又把重心放回了Guns N' Roses。
That is, until Angus Young, Stevie Young, Phil Rudd and Brian Johnson were
apparently caught on camera in Vancouver, where AC/DC has recorded their last
three studio albums. Unfortunately, that's all we know so far. Of the things
still to be determined, however, here are three big questions raised by
AC/DC's Vancouver photos ...
也就是说,直到Angus、Stevie、Phil、Brian在温哥华,他们的前三个专辑录制场所,
被拍到的时候,这些就是我们唯一知道的事情。虽然事情仍然扑朔迷离,但有三个大问题
接续着这张照片而来。
1) Are they in Vancouver to record a new album?
No one would fault Angus for trying to get the old band back together – or
at least a reasonable facsimile. Johnson's presence makes sense, too, since
his hearing issues were by all accounts related to live performances. But
what if this supposed reunion isn't in service of new music, at all? Stevie
Young has done a credible job on stage with the old songs, but they're still
missing an inestimable creative piece without Malcolm Young. A more
manageable pursuit might involve putting the finishing touches on a best-of
project, or a box set. It's easier to picture them completing, say, a bonus
track. They might also have gathered to provide extra content for a Rock or
Bust-related special edition – or even the long-rumored concert recording
from Chicago's Wrigley Field. AC/DC hasn't put out a live album since 2011's
Live at River Plate, which was recorded at Argentina's national soccer
stadium in Buenos Aires.
第一、他们在温哥华是在录制新专辑吗?
没人会指责Angus要重组老乐团(或至少是个摹本)的尝试,因此Brian的出现也很合理,
因为他的听力问题跟现场演唱比较有关。但会不会这次重组跟新的音乐完全无关?
Stevie在演奏旧歌并没有问题,但没有了Malcolm,他们仍然少了一个无法衡量的创意
来源。
更简单的尝试,或许是制作精选辑,或一套专辑。想像他们完成了一个後续或附加专辑
会比较容易一些。他们也有可能是要做一个Rock or Bust相关的特别专辑,有可能是长
期传言的芝加哥Wrigley Field演唱会专辑。从2011的Live at River Plate专辑後,
AC/DC还没发行另一个演唱会现场专辑。
2) If they returned to the road, would Brian Johnson be able to safely join
them?
Johnson's sudden departure didn't signal the end of his career. Stephen
Ambrose almost immediately contacted him to discuss newly developed in-ear
monitors that the inventor said could help Johnson return without risking
further hearing loss — and Johnson says he came away "amazed." In the
meantime, he never actually retired: Johnson has since appeared on new
records by Jim Breuer and Greg Billings, and he's even returned to the stage.
That dovetails with Johnson's comments when his hearing issue was first
revealed in 2016: "While the outcome is uncertain, my attitude is
optimistic." Perhaps Ambrose's "breakthrough ADEL hearing technology" – or
something like it – could play a role in getting Johnson back on the concert
trail with AC/DC. Then again, there's always the prospect of Brian Johnson
working as their studio singer, while Axl Rose – in a nod to the Beach Boys'
approach with Brian Wilson – handles road duties.
第二、如果他们又开始巡演,Brian能安全的加入他们吗?
Brian的突然离去并不代表他职业生涯的结束。Stephen Ambrose联系Brian有关新的入耳型
监测仪,可以帮助Brian在没有失去听力的风险下回归,而Brian则说他很「惊讶」。而且
Brian也没有完全退休,他也在Jim Breuer和Greg Billings的录制里出现,甚至要回归舞
台。这个迹象在2016,Brian的听力问题浮现时,他说的话中可以推测:「当结果仍不确定
时,我的态度都很乐观。」或许Ambrose的「突破性ADEL听觉技术」或这类的东西,可以在
Brian回到AC/DC的巡演中扮演重要的角色。
一样的,一直有一种期待是让Brian担任AC/DC的录音室歌手,Axl则担任演唱会歌手,就像
Beach Boys跟Brian Wilson一样。
3) With Cliff Williams' retirement, who would play bass?
Williams remains retired, if the photographic evidence from Vancouver is to
be believed. And his absence isn't too surprising, considering the finality
of his goodbye message. "I just need family time now, to just chill out and
not do this," he said in 2016. "It’s just – I'm just ready to get off the
road, really, and do what I do." So, who could potentially replace a guy who
held down the bottom end for nearly four decades? There's Larry Van Kriedt,
if Angus is ready to add another original member the mix. There's also Mark
Evans, who was with AC/DC from 1975–77. His arrival would return all of the
living members of AC/DC's T.N.T., Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and Let There
Be Rock lineup.
On the other hand, they could continue to plum the Guns N' Roses lineup by
adding Duff McKagan or Tommy Stinson – and either of those bassists would
mesh well with Rose, should he return for live duty. (Down side: If Rose and
McKagan both joined, there would be more original Guns N' Roses members in
this band than AC/DC co-founders.) Of course, Geezer Butler, Michael Anthony
and Geddy Lee are free these days. Butler toured with AC/DC as a member of
Black Sabbath in 1977, and Lee is in Canada, too. Stone Temple Pilots bassist
Robert DeLeo always seems to have time for side projects, from Delta Deep to
the Hollywood Vampires. Then there's the do-anything Dave Grohl; he played
bass on the Foo Fighters' debut and, more recently, on 2013's Sound City
Players tour.
第三、Cliff Williams退休了,谁来弹贝斯?
如果温哥华的照片可以相信,那Cliff看起来还在退休状态。而且从他的离别信息末段来
看,他的缺席也很正常。「我现在只需要家庭,需要放松一下,而不是继续做这个(指乐
团)。我准备好要离开这条路,并做我该做的事。」
所以说,谁能取代这个将近四十年来,负责低音的人呢?如果Angus想要再加一个元老成
员,有Larry Van Kriedt。Marks Evans也是个人选,他在1975-1977年的时候待在AC/DC
之中,他如果加入,将代表着T.N.T.、下流痞子、摇滚蔓延时期,所有还活着的成员的大
团聚。
另一方面,他们也可以延续GNR的阵容,让Duff McKagan或Tommy Stinson加入。这两位应
该都能跟Axl顺利合作。(如果Axl跟McKagan都加入,那麽元老GNR的成员将会比元老AC/DC
的成员还多喔)当然,Greezer Butler、Michael Anthony和Geddy Lee也都可行,Butler
身为黑色安息日的成员,曾在1977年的时候跟AC/DC一起巡演,而Lee则是人也在加拿大。
Stone Temple Pilots的贝斯手Robert DeLeo好像随时都可以接个副业,从Delta Deep到
Hollywood Vampires。还有一个什麽都能做的Dave Grohl,他在Foo Fighters和2013的
Sound City Players巡回中弹奏贝斯。
所以...真的会有AC/DC新专辑吗?
