In 1976, when the Eagles, Peter Frampton, and Heart ruled the rock airwaves, along came five scruffy young men (the lead guitarist was maybe all of 18 and dressed in a schoolboy's uniform) from Australia playing some of the rowdiest, hardest, dirtiest rock of all time. Screaming "It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)," singer Bon Scott teased like a braggart. Sensing the rock community's growing dissatisfaction with bloated, epic-scaled bands, AC/DC were indeed a high-voltage act: their drummer nailed the beat with fury, their bluesy guitar riffs mutated into something metallic and sharp-edged, and Scott's vocals took the shrillness of early Robert Plant to a leaner and meaner place. "Live Wire" is one of the most electrifying hard rock songs imaginable, "High Voltage" and "TNT" are the musical equivalent of touching exposed nerves with a rusty fork, and "Jack" proves that white rock dudes can, contrary to popular belief, get down . Whew! --Lorry Fleming . Review: Good album - Brings back high-school memories. This is one of best albums . Almost all the songs are good ones I stead of just one or two like most albums Review: Got long way to the top on it . Bon Scott - This has the most classic Bon Scott tunes. Long way to the top with bag pipes. It doesn't get any better than this.

Imprescindible
Si te gusta AC/DC o has empezado a escucharlos tienes que tener este disco. El primero que salió a la venta a nivel internacional y el mejor de todos. Es uno de esos trabajos que hay qur tenerlos en tu discotecas. Brutal, se escucha en bucle sin darte cuenta, con el único tema que tienen lls australianos grabados con gaitas, es una auténtica maravilla. Si bajaran los precios como hicieron con este (14,95€) seguramente que compraríamos más, que este disco tiene casi 50 años y todavía quieren seguir amortizándolo, están poniendo el rock para ricos y no era esa la idea inicial de las bandas.
