Carson spent a great deal of time on the road with bands under his purview, most notably Led Zeppelin.
Carson’s deep connection to AC/DC can be underscored by the fact that he is the only record executive thanked by name on original pressings of “Back in Black” and “For Those About to Rock”.
This is where Carson assembled The Firm, the super group featuring Jimmy Page and Paul Rodgers.
[3] Carson was also the responsible for the reformation of the progressive rock band Emerson, Lake & Palmer in 1991, which had been disbanded since 1979.
Since the early 1990s, Carson has kept a few clients in his management roster including Foreigner and Dee Snider.
