Hmmm, I'm not sure I can hear the Doors comparison. Never mind. When I first
heard "Bad Habit" I thought of an early AC/DC track (from the Bon Scott era,
that is) called "It's a Long Way to the Top (if you wanna rock n roll)",
sans bagpipes. The "BH" riff and chorus chords are reminiscent, but the
similarity in guitar sound was the first to catch my ear. I later read in
the liner notes that Angus Young gets a Thanks, and wondered if that was the
AC/DC Angus Young, and whether or not he provided some input e.g. getting
THAT guitar sound. Deb? Al? Anyone in the know?
Pete.
