Hells Bells

[My Good Babushka]

The pealing bells used in AC/DC's Hells Bells were cast at the John Taylor and Co. Bell Foundry of Leicestershire. It is the largest working bell foundry in the world. The history of bellfounders associated with the company stretches back to Johannes de Stafford in the 14th century who was also a mayor of Leocester. The Taylor family became involved in 1784 and a foundry was established on the current site in 1839. In 1963, Paul Taylor, last of the Taylor family in the business, appeared on the American TV panel show "What's My Line?", challenging the panel with his occupation as a bell maker. His widow, Mrs Merle Taylor is Hon President of the company.

1. I learned a lot if details about bell ringing from "The Nine Tailors"

In fact, more details than I thought I'd ever need.
