Amazon.co.uk Review
What Highway to Hell has that Back in Black doesn't is Bon Scott, AC / DC's original lead singer who died just months after this album was released. Scott had a rusty, raspy, scream of a voice, like he might break into a coughing fit at any moment. In other words, on crunchy, hook-heavy metal classics like the title track and on "Get It Hot" which is more roadhouse rock than metal, he had the perfect instrument for such wild-living anthems. Too perfect, it turned out. --David Cantwell

CD Description
It will always be a mystery how a grown man can spend his life wearing a school tie and short pants and receive adulation from the heavy metal fraternity. HM followers do not tolerate a cissy, yet the hugely talented Angus Young has becomesomething of a hero. His riff-laden fills, combined with the tough vocals of the late Bon Scott, made AC/DC one of the genre's all-time leading lights. Bordering on the lighter side of metal, songs such as 'Love Hungry Man', 'Touch Too Much' and the title track will always delight.

Customer Reviews

Seminal hard rock.
AC/DC didn't get any better than this. The tunes are killers, the guitar playing is phenomenal, the vocals see Bon reaching his apex. The production on this record is as dry as a bone, and locked down tight. Buying this on CD, after listening to it on an old tape for years, has made me fall in love with it all over again. Superb hard rock.

Tight as a duck's arse
AC/DC hit their peak with this masterpiece of boogie rock, and it was immediately followed by the death of vocalist Bon Scott.

This album contains all the inventive wizadry of Angus Young's lead guitar and Bon's effervescent vocals.

This is the album with the classics on - Touch Too Much, Shot Down in Flames, Highway To Hell. Each track has its own character and feel, and each has a real buzz with the guitar. Bon was a bar-room poet with thinking man's lyrics about real life. Sometimes the topics aren't all that, but he always sounds good.

This is a full-metal album but there's plenty of melodic riffs and the rhythmn section is second to none. A real party record. Bon belts out each track but doesn't resort to the modern faux-aggression of a gutteral growl. His attitude is enough.

Each track seems to have just come together by magic. Top metal record.

the finest ac/dc album of them all
ac/dc will be doing well to better this excellent example of an album that just works,great songs,great songwriting,and still sounds great over 25 years after its release,yes it is their defining album,bon scott was the definitive ac/dc vocalist,i aint being disrespectful to brian johnson who has been his replacement for over 26 years,its just that bon brought a dirty rock n roll snarl to the vocals which complimented the blusey rock and roll that the young brothers dished out on guitar.there isnt one bad song on here,songs like the legendary highway to hell,walk all over you,if you want blood,shot down in flames and touch too much are all on here and they are cracking stomping rock n sleaze roll numbers,its a pretty flawless album,its a fun album to listen too and it deserves to be listened to loud,you will salute them after this,magical album
