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.
I share your sentiment. I've never really cared for the title track even before it was overplayed on local radio. I had LTBR (8-Track) on constant loop as a kid.
