After that I really like Ballbreaker and Stiff upper lip. There are som great songs on them, Hard as a rock, Whiskey on the rocks, Ballbreaker, Stiff upper lip, Meltdown, House of jazz and Satelite blues are great!

AMAZING video! I don't know how I missed this one when you unleashed it to the masses. I, too, absolutely adore POWERAGE. It would be my second fave 'DC album. My fave may shock you but it's BLOW UP YOUR VIDEO and my all-time fave 'DC track is "Two's Up". I love the fact that you even mentioned it! Funny you did talk about a "darker side" of AC/DC a couple of times... this is one of those songs. It has something different. It is very dramatic in mood and tone, it's a bit sad and melancholic with an absolutely killer solo. I also love "Ruff Stuff" and "Some Sin for Nuthin"... some really obscure 'DC tracks that still send chills down my spine man. Other than all the usual faves I also really dig BALLBREAKER. I think it's a really strong album and "Burning Alive" is a criminally underrated song that I find really ear-pleasing and endearing. Funny how some folks still refer to Johnson as the "new" singer... he joined the band in frigging 1980!!! Also it's just normal that he ended up doing more "iffy" albums in the end - Scott only did 5 albums. Except for POWERAGE, which I absolutely adore, I would say Johnson is the better singer. A bit more "metal" too, less hard rock n' roll so retrospectively I figure Johnson was more appropriate for the 80s. He was inspirational to me as a singer too when I first started out in high school bands. "Anyhoos" man, very very good vid, I really enjoyed it. Keep it right up! All the best and I hope you're still spinning VoD from time to time, Daniel

Bon Scott's favorite AC/DC album was Powerage. Angus said in a documentary, he had the most fun ... no stress by the label ... lest favorable was Highway To Hell. They were under the gun ... make it or you're gone. I got the impression, that most of their albums by 1979 in the US failed to chart. High Voltage sold a mere 40,000 copies (1976-1979) mainly from from concerts.

Hi Darcy I’d switch the top two around 1. Powerage - every track a killer and Bon’s singing spot on, Angus on fire and Malcolm’s playing crisp 2. Highway To Hell - for me, not quite at the same level but a bit more polished and has lost some of the rawness that made them awesome 3. Back In Black - I’d put this just slightly higher than ‘Let There Be Rock’ For me, Brian Johnson not as dangerous or wild as Bon, and I didn’t think anything after BIB compares with anything the band did with Bon Scott (RIP I went to a record shop and swapped a couple of old electro albums for Powerage in around 1979. the sleeve was battered but the vinyl pristine Saw them in the mid 90’s ... great live act Bonfire is a great release 🤘

Hey Darcy! Enjoyed the video. AC/DC ranking couldn’t be easy they have so many awesome albums but you did a great job! My friends kept telling back in the day there was more to rock than Kiss ( I was very stubborn) lol. Thanks to them I discovered Rush and AC/DC early on. My first take on AC/DC was For Those About to Rock on LP. Wow!!!! I was blown away then came Highway to Hell on cassette followed by Back in Black and Flick of the Switch both on LP. Next thing I new it I had everything they’d done. Highway to Hell has always been my favorite album of theirs and still is to this day!!! My top 5 would be: 5. Flick of the Switch 4. Dirty Deeds 3. Back in Black 2. For Those About to Rock 1. Highway to Hell Thanks again Darcy another fine job and as always stay heavy!!🤘🤘🤘

I would say your rankings were great. Flick of the Switch was so underrated. On one of the ACDC documentary's Brian was saying that when he took over he was pretty nervous realized he had to do his own thing and not to try to recreate what Bon did. At his first show becuse of how much the fans had loved Bon he wasn't sure what kind of reaction he would get. Place went crazy huge ovation. Got the monkey off his back felt way better he said.

Here's my favorite ranking, as I rank them today - including Powerup or PwrUp. 1979 to 1980 - High Voltage (1976) was my all-time favorite AC/DC album, not Highway To Hell. 1980 to 2002 - Back In Black ruled supreme ... due to lyric content, I felt out of place, but love Angus king riffs. Where it slipped down to #2 and boarderline slipping to #3 by 2020. But where does fit today in 2023, let those hells bells ring in or out of tune, and I still love that great love song the most - Give The Dog A Bone. I became an instant Back In Black fan the day after It's debut 1980 release. It should be no surprise to learn that Hells Bells and Shoot To Thrill have always been at the bottom of the ten track. 16. Rock Or Bust (title cut) 15. Blow Up Your Video (That's The Way I Rock 'N' Roll) 14. Fly On The Wall 13. Black Ice (War Machine) 12. For Those About To Rock (title cut and Put The Finger On You) 11. Highway To Hell 10. Powerup 9. The Razor's Edge 8. Stiff Upper Lips (title cut, Safe In New York City) 7. Let There Be Rock (Whole Lotta Rosie great live on If You Want Blood) Dog Eat Dog 6. Ballbreaker (title cut, The Furor) 5. Powerage (What's Next To The Moon) 4. Flick Of The Switch (Deep In The Hole) basic rock in rawhide, instead basic black and motorcycle studs, shir ain't Judas Priest, lol. But fit solid between Screaming For Vengeance and Defenders Of The Faith. the top three sure are near great albums - 9 out ten to perfection: 3. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (title cut, Big Balls and Squaler top three favorites) not really a weak track 2. Back In Black (Given The Dog A Bone, You Shook Me All Night Long, What Do You Do For Money) not really a weak track 1. High Voltage (1976) #1 since 2003 to 2023 ... Rock 'N' Roll Singer my #1 all-time favorite hard rock song, it cranks me up and throws me to the wall like a shot in the dark, but never leaves me hanging. Actually is a perfect album with a slight flaw with in lyric mode but Bon carries it well with his street level poetry It's A Long Way To The Top bathroom graffiti anthem about overflowing the toilet about the hard life on the road and drug abuse (heavy drinking that appears to have played a part in his death in 1980) other wise, a masterpiece with bagpipes and the whole bit. In fact, High Voltage (1975 Australia) beats out Bad Company's Straight Shooter for favorite album of the year. Love Song great deep cut ballad that makes me laugh every time ... the opener riff cranks you up and throws you to wall, as it makes you cry the blues Baby Please Don't Go cover - She's Got Balls, just as good on the international version of High Voltage. The original album with three uncredited drummers, that Phil Rudd grabbing up the credits on the international version. Back cover is the same ... love the hand written love letters actually pinned by groupies ... It's insane to know what they got away with in Little Lover. It's a wonder why in the 1976 review Rolling Stones Magazine said that it was a new "low" for heavy metal ... the album never charted till 1981 and went on to sell 3 million copies. Who's right? The critics or the album buyer or the fan who purchases the pricey tickets .... in September 1979 my friends, who turned me on to the first three albums that they got at the concert: AC/DC headlined, Molly Hatchet 2nd billing, and Point Blank opened - they paid something like $7 apiece and it wasn't sold out. A mere 1400 (half) of the general admitted ticket sold by show time. It's insane that fans today .... paying out $300 plus for backroll seating. You might get a nosebleed looking down to ants on stage. LOL GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME ROCK 'N' ROLL rip Bon Scott and Malcolm Young

#1 is indeed #1. I also agree with you on Rock or Bust being dead last, as well as the positioning for Black Ice, Back in Black and Flick of the Switch, albeit for different reasons in the case of the last two. The only ones I'd disagree on really are High Voltage, Razors and Stiff Upper Lip, I'd place them higher than you (and Powerage lower) Also wondering where you'd put the new Power Up, I'd put it smack in the middle, somewhere in the vicinity of Stiff Upper Lip and Ballbreaker. (PS I came into AC/DC via 74 Jailbreak at age 11 - but my first 'real time' release was Ballbreaker, though I didn't get it back then, only years later. My first release-day pickup was Black Ice, and I got a free t-shirt with my purchase. Also got to see them on that tour, and it was magical - especially because I was too young for their previous visit to my country back in '95/'96. It was definitely worth the nearly 14-year wait though.)

One of the most enjoyable aspects of AC/DC is that the two singers sound different enough that they have distinct personalities, yet similar enough for fans to largely enjoy both. Bon had that nasally voice full of nuance and whimsy, while Brian's gravelly shriek has the subtlety of razor wire sandpaper. I love 'em both and really enjoy that Brian has always honored Bon by singing "his" songs with enthusiasm and respect. Keeps a part of Bon alive. A Few Favorite Songs Ranked as Best I Can: 1. Sin City - I've heard it a hundred thousand times and still get chills. This may be the perfect hard rock song. 2. Have A Drink On Me - I don't know why, but this song just sounds tough and has from the first time I heard it. My friends skated to the Dead Kennedys, but I skated to AC/DC. 3. Ride On - This slow burner comforted me through many confused times with the message that no matter what I could eventually move on to something new. Some of Angus' best solo work too. 4. Touch Too Much - The brothers' seamless instrumental work and the rawness of the riff make this one a favorite. It just sounds exquisite. 5. Baby Please Don't Go - This Big Joe Williams remake takes on a sped up, almost frantic quality that does justice to the source material. 6. Evil Walks - One of the heaviest songs the band ever did, IMO. Brian's voice was in top form and belts it out with gritty precision. 7. Meanstreak - Blow Up Your Video was the first new release I bought, and right away this song struck out. It's still a favorite today. 8. DT - One of the very few Acca Dacca instrumentals, this one sounds just right. This song has the perfect heaviness that works just fine while Brian takes a smoke break. 9. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap - Between the brothers' growling guitars and Bon's high wails, this tough song is the perfect anthem for a hit man. 10. What's Next To The Moon - This dark and sordid song has always drawn my attention, all menacing and building as it goes. Classy.

Solid list. For me, once I really listened to the Bon Scott-era material through and through, it became a double edged sword. It's all amazing, but for years I've been stuck on just 6 albums (OK, 5 plus the EP with "Jailbreak") and I find it too difficult to ever go back listening to Brian Johnson again. I hate to be that guy but I just feel that Scott was the perfect front man for this band. Most seemingly underrated AC/DC song in my opinion - "Ain't No Fun (Waitin' Round to be a Millionaire)". Don't know how you feel about that one but I think it's the high point of the Dirty Deeds album.

People speak about the Back in Black album being Brian's best vocal performance of his career. Can't argue with that except to say that on Flick of the Switch he hits those notes yet has arguably more character to his voice. He sounds like a total bad ass on that album and his 'vocal intent' sounds like he's gonna bust a lung! Raw, brutal and brilliant!

Much like Judas Priest, ACDC was a band I listen to (the hits) but never owned any albums of. My first ACDC record I bought was Back in black and that was around a year and a half ago. Its like one of thoses required to listen to bands that I simply missed out on growing up. Thrash and Death metal was all I listened to back then. Very cool to have this reference video for the future. 🙂 May the metal gods be with you my friend.

Good list. I also got into AC/DC at age 13, but that was in 1990, so it was "The Razor's Edge" that was all the rage at that time. I still think that's mostly a great album and without a doubt their last really good one. My cousin introduced me to "Back in Black" in the mid-80's, but it actually scared me at the time, so I couldn't listen to it! I was a very sensitive 7 year-old... 😁

Hi Darcy!!! Nice seen a ranking of all international releases, yes they area great band, but i'm still missing some of their releases late 80's early 90's but i want the old jewel cases, not the digipacks!!!! I've got the chance to see them on the Ballbreaker tour and fun fact, my brother won a meet and greet with the band, he still can't believe it!!!! Btw the Bonfire box is a great one, but the only complain is why they put back in black in it i would rather want some other material instead. Favorite song (BS era) Problem Child, (BJ era) What you do for money Honey. Cheers

Hey man, another great list! Like you, I tapped out after Ballbreaker, and I couldn't fairly do a list without knowing the last three albums well enough (heard them all, but was so divested at that point I would be biased in my assessment). A few thoughts: > Like most of us around our age, Who Made Who was my introduction to the band. You got the standard Brian era hits in a compact package! I always felt that if this was the studio album in place of the 80's albums, it would be among their best! > Is Back in Black the greatest 'gateway' album of all time? It's impossible to deny how good it is, but almost everyone I know feels burned out on it due to overplay--even the deep cuts get frequent radio play! > Notwithstanding the last three albums, Blow Up Your Video is my least favourite, followed closely by Ballbreaker. After buying The Razor's Edge upon release (still love that one), I decided I'd start to backtrack the 80's albums. I stopped after BUYV, never liked it beyond the two singles (they should throw those onto Who Made Who!) > I also prefer the Bon Scott albums the most, and on any given day any of them could be a favourite, though I usually gravitate to Let There Be Rock And Dirty Deeds, personally. I thin that it was less a matter of vocalist though and more the blues-drenched style of the early years. > Fav AC/DC tracks: The Jack, Whole Lotta Rosie, Let There Be Rock, Rocker, Shake Your Foundations Cheers!

Back in Black is a fine album, but Brian for me will never have an album better than Bon. Love Brian, but Bon is too cool. Brian's kinda more sleazy and predictable. Bon is a wild card, he's dangerous. Bon IS the lighting bolt for AC/DC. Side note: I absolutely love Stiff Upper Lip. I think that album is so smart with their change of sound to a blues-based rock. It was a breath of fresh air. My all time fav. album is probably Powerage. But Highway to Hell, that might be my alternate fav.

Quite well timed as I just pulled out stiff upper lip to listen to. They're a solid band. I'd say their 80s stuff is very underated due to the success of BiB, especially fly on the wall. Personally I think they should have called it a day after the black ice album as I thought it would be a strong album to finish on. Fav album probs for those about to rock. Fav song twos up, razors edge and burnin' alive. 🤘 Ps the bonfire box set is worth getting if you don't already have it 🤘

Two icons of rock and roll passed in 1980 Bon Scott and of course John Lennon. Both their passings are still vivid in my memory where i was what i was doing hearing about it on the news. A bit of trivia people may be surprised to know Bon Scott was not the original singer of ACDC

So many great albums and not easy to do for me. 1. Razors Edge- this was my first ACDC cd I grew up listening to. I just love Thunderstruck, Moneytalks, the title track and fire your guns. Maybe only 2 songs I dont care for but the rest I really enjoy and love Brian's vocals on here. His voice is so funny at times as well. Almost like hes purposely trying to be extra raspy. 2. Let There Be Rock- I just love the title track and whole lotta Rosie. My top 2 favorite bon scott songs of all time. Not a bad song on this album as well. Near perfect expect I dont understand why we have problem child on here and Dirty Deeds. 3. Back in Black- most have this at number 1 and although it's all killer no filler like Let There Be Rock. I have listening to many of these songs so much over the years that I sometimes grow sick of this album. But I will admit it deserves to be 1 of the top 3 to 5 best and understand why many say its number 1 but I just enjoy 2 more albums a bit more. 4. Highway to Hell- another awesome album. Only maybe 2 songs I dont care on here. But so many great songs especially my favorite Touch Too Much, Girls Got Rhythm and Walk all over You. The title track is good but definitely not my favorite on this album and I have overheard it too much as well. 5. Flick of the Switch- like Let There Be Rock another very underrated album this is like the Powerage of Brian Johnson era. So amazing with only the last 3 songs being weak. 6. Powerage- it seemed obvious this was my next pick after praising it before 7. Stiff Upper Lip- I went to this concert and it was Awesome. I really enjoy the blues sounds from this album. It reminds me of there debut album. I know many would say this is worse than their 1st album but I just enjoy this 1 more and like Brian's vocals on here and well 8. High Voltage- I love this blues rock debut. Only 3 songs i dont care for. 9. Black Ice- another concert I went to and I just love the title track. I will admit this album has the most acdc filler with way too many songs being something rock and roll which but to be honest every album has those songs since the debut with long way to the top if you want to rock and roll. But I will admit ACDC most albums except for a few I mention with almost every track being good are known for having forgettable tracks outside of the hits off that album. The albums that dont have this problem for me are 1 through 6. 7 and up have their fair share of forgettable tracks. 10. BallBreaker 11. Dirty Deeds 12. For Those About to Rock 13. Rock or Bust 14. Fly on the Wall 15. Blow Up your video- easily the worse for me and many of their albums have this formula where your like beside heatseeker and the other music video hit or 2 songs, what else is on here. Not much of anything else. High Voltage, Dirty Deeds, For Those about to Rock, Fly on the Wall, Blow up your Video, BallBreaker, and the rest after ballbreaker all have this problem with half to most of these cds having filler for me. I still enjoy songs on these albums but some hits I enjoyed more than others or overall liked more songs on 1 album vs another.

Fantastic ranking , I really enjoyed reading all your thoughts ! I think for a lot of people that got into AC/DC in between ‘74 - ‘90 will usually pick the first album they heard as their favourite ! I don’t dismiss the albums from ‘95 to ‘14 , just not as strong in my opinion ! Cheers from Saskatchewan Canada 🤘

@@JCStorm76 what is your ranking? I'm sorry maybe I should say Fly on the Wall is the worse. My top 7 will probably always be the same. I know many hate stiff Upper lip but maybe because it was my first concert I saw of theirs and bought there cd there and enjoyed the concert that it made me like that cd more. Plus I like how it sounds most similar to their older stuff of the 70s. It's got that bluesy rock sound on many tracks noticed on powerage and high Voltage. I wouldnt say blow up your video is terrible to me but most forgettable outside of the 2 music videos the album made. I cant remember much of anything else on it. Maybe I should try listening to every track again on that album.
