Dirty Deeds facts
While investigating facts about Dirty Deeds, I found out little known, but curios details like:
A couple sued AC/DC in 1981 for $250,000 because their telephone number is in the song "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" resulting in hundreds of prank calls.
The phone number included in "Dirty Deeds..." by AC/DC was an actual couples phone number from Libertyville, Illinois. It resulted in hundreds of prank calls. The couple also filed a $250,000 lawsuit against Atlantic Records for it.
