Rick N. Backer Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Yesterday it was If You Want Blood and Powerage. Today at the gym I'm going to listen to Flick of the Switch. AC/DC truly is genius in its everday clothes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobo73 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Going through an AC/DC binge of late. Listened to Highway to Hell yesterday and Stiff Upper Lip today. Bon or Brian era, it's all good stuff. yes it is ;) I love Stiff Upper Lip! Solid, bluesy record if you ask me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 The workout ran a little long, so I dipped into Fly on the Wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobo73 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 The workout ran a little long, so I dipped into Fly on the Wall. Nice!!! I think I've said it before- FOTW has great, strong songs BUT the album overall was too produced. Too polished. Still love it though :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Listened to Powerage all the way through on the treadmill this morning. Superness!!! :haz: My favourite AC/DC album.Not mine but close. Let There Be Rock is one of the first few albums I ever bought back in 77' ish. Great blues based hard rock. In my top 10 albums all time easily..... :) Edited February 2, 2014 by Narpzilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Listened to Highway To Hell all the way through on the treadmill this morning. I had not listened to it all the way through in a long time. Although it has some greatness on it, I think LTBR and Powerage are better overall.... :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highway to HellI wore out Let There Be Rock in the late 70's. I swear it has only increased in my book over the years. I thought it was great then and of course telling others (then) fell on deaf ears. It is even better to me now than I even remembered it being then.. :cheers: :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like with VH or Sabbath, the different eras of AC/DC to me are in many ways completely different bands. But I would pick either High Voltage or Highway to Hell as my favorite Bon era albums, although they all have their merits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I haven't "grown out of" AC/DC by now, my sense is I never will. I got into AC/DC when Back in Black was their newest album, and that will always have a special place with me. My first concert was AC/DC on the For Those About to Rock tour, so I'll always love that one too. If I'm in the mood for AC/DC, I can enjoy any one of their albums though.

I saw them live with Bon (1 time) and Brian (2 times). I prefer the Bon era but that is probably for good reason.... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronos Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I love all the Bon-era albums, but I have to give the nod to Highway to Hell only because it was my first. I still remember the first time I heard the title track: I was at the bus stop (age 11, somewhere near the end of '79) waiting to go to school, and a "bad kid" from my class lured me into his house nearby. Curiosity got the better of me, and I stepped inside. Three or four of my fellow sixth-graders were skipping school that day, and they were all smokin' weed, flippin' through stacks of Playboys, and crankin' Highway to Hell. I hadn't yet been corrupted, so I hightailed it out after a few minutes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed a lot from 85'- the 2000's.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronos Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 17 shirts? Later in sixth grade (see story above) I bought an AC/DC tank top. I recall wearing it with my KISS belt buckle (I didn't know any better, both musically and sartorially). Thank the gods no incriminating photos exist of that wardrobe malfunction. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
