Let There Be Rock, Powerage. Highway to Hell and
Back in Black are all suure to make the top 10 lists, also for the live album section,
If You Want Blood You've Got it as well.
Guess what, I think
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap to be an average album that never gave me an erection in any way shape or form. I think the songs aren't there, it's dominated by Bon Scott's juvenile humour, to the point that it detracts from the album. The reason it's such a well known album, is that it wasn't released in the USA at the time as the label didn't think it good enough, It was only after Bon Scott died several years later that it became a treasured album to get hold of, as an unknown AC/DC album and people clamoured after it. I listened to it recently and still felt it was average. I think it was with
Let There Be Rock that the band hit there true potential a year after.
