I have a confession to make, this was my first AC/DC album,
yes, before Back in Black, before Highway to Hell. I still have a bit of a soft spot for this
album, and while it’s a little long and tends to overstay its welcome by the
end, I still hold it in very high regard.
Tracks you may
know:
Stiff Upper Lip – One of my favorite tracks in the
catalogue, a killer riff with a great solo about halfway through the song. AC/DC at its finest.
Tracks you should
know:
Come and Get It – There’s something about hearing Brian
Johnson growl the challenge “come and get it” that makes me very confident he’d
have my back in fight.
All Screwed Up – A fast moving romp of a song, not quite
“Rocker” level, but the guitarwork on this one is cleaner.
My personal favorite:
I have to go with “Stiff Upper Lip”. If you listen to no other song on this album,
listen to that one.
Album rating:
A great album (I am a little biased, I admit) that just
builds on their late career resurgence.
By now the myth of AC/DC was just as important as their output, and
their output was phenomenal.
8/10
