AC/DC Through Glass, London 1990
This photograph was taken during a portrait session where Terry O’Neill deliberately shot through glass to break the traditional rules of band photography. Rather than presenting a polished or staged image, O’Neill wanted to capture AC/DC’s irreverent humor and explosive chemistry.
“They were making a comeback when we took this photograph,” recalls Terry O’Neill. “As the years go by, it becomes very clear which bands have talent—and which bands will simply fade away. That’s why I took the assignment to photograph AC/DC in the 1990s. They had stood the test of time and were exceptionally talented.” — Terry O’Neill, Every Picture Tells a Story
