Product Description

CD Description
If possible, AC/DC actually made their sound denser on its sophomore effort, LET THERE BE ROCK. A darker album than itspredecessor, HIGH VOLTAGE, this album leans further towardsAC/DC's twisted extension in the blues tradition. Which is not to say that the band relented from its three-chord powerriffing for one millisecond. The presence of Angus Young's mighty Gibson SG looms over the album like a sheet of lead on a windless day. What has changed is the inclusion of longer songs like "Go Down", "Dog Eat Dog", and the floor rattling "Let There be Rock", all of which feature ripping interplay between Bon Scott's perverse howl and Young's straight forthe throat guitar lines.
Where others hint at hormone-driven themes of lust and adolescent rebellion, AC/DC revel inthem with abandon. Thus "Bad Boy Boogie" and "Problem Child" are songs your parents are sure to hate with heartfelt passion. The album's highlights are "Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be", a mighty fist-waver whose references to warmer climatesare something that only the most uptight will take seriously and the near classic "Whole Lotta Rosie", which would become one of the band's live staples and show-stoppers.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is the ordinary version. Waste of money., 16 Jun 2008
By A. Wassertheil - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Let There Be Rock (Audio CD)
This is a fantastic album don't get me wrong, but the "Australian" version has a song called "Crabsody in Blue" instead of "Problem Child". It is technically an import however because despite having the international track listing, the disc was manufactured in Australia.

The true Australian Version of "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" however is available in amazon.co.uk via the independent resellers and was worth spending the extra quid for it. This album is not worth the extra money.

Don't get this particular album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bad Ass Boogie (of the highest order), 4 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This has to be one of THE best rock albums ever made. It is just oozing classic anthems, Whole Lotta Rosie, Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be, Bad Boy Boogie, Let There Be Rock. What else can you say - even today AC/DC still play these songs live even after 20 years - timeless. Who can listen to Overdose and not smile inanely at the quality riffage - Fantastic.
