“Idle juvenile on the street on the street, kickin' everything with his feet with his feet, fightin' on the wrong side of the law of the law,… don't kick don't fight don't sleep at night, and shake a leg!….” ‘Shake A Leg’, a powerful in-your-face hard rockin’ track from AC/DC’s legendary 1980 album “Back In Black” is often cited as a fan favorite. The song’s fast paced guitar riff and Brian’s glass shattering vocals as he sings “magazines wet dreams dirty women on machine's for me” exemplify AC/DC’s boogie-blues roots, but with the added high voltage power that only AC/DC can deliver.
The band performed “Shake A Leg” live only once, on June 29, 1980 in Namur, Belgium. Not only was this the only known time that AC/DC were to perform this song live, it was also the very first live show with singer Brian Johnson since the untimely death of original singer Bon Scott.
