Passages were read from Tom McNichol's AC/DC: The Savage Tale of the First Standards War & from David Bodanis' Electric Universe. The chapter from McNichol's book entitled Killing an Elephant provided the perfect textual accompaniment to the cathartic shocks of Stefan Jaworzyn's electric guitar with the painful wail of Alan Wilkinson's baritone sax.
