Who Made Who [Enhanced, Original recording remastered, Soundtrack]

Who made who was released after fly on the wall, and is a definate improvement, taken from the stephen king film, maximum overdrive, it is basically a mini best of ac/dc up to that point.
1. Who made who - one of the best songs they have ever recorded, so damn catchy - 10/10
2. You shook me all night long - yet again another true classic - 10/10
3. DT - the first of two instrumentals, this is great - 8/10
4. Sink the pink - what a dirty song, another classic - 10/10
5. Ride on - the only song from the bon era, not one of my favourites, but still a good song - 8/10
6. Hells bells - a ledgendary song - 10/10
7. Shake your foundations - another classic taken from the fly on the wall album - 10/10
8. Chase the ace - the second instrumental on the album, i reckon it ius slightly better than DT - 9/10
9. For those about to rock, we salute you - what a way to finish the album, a truly classic song - 10/10

This album was a great follow up to Fly on the wall, and even though there were only three new songs, it still sold over five milion copies in the US alone, i really do recommend that you buy this album.

Songs taken from the DTV movie "Maximum Overdrive" , this is a mixed bag from the Aussie classic rockers . There are a couple of instrumentals , of average quality , a few more rocky numbers , fairly satisfying , and ( criminally ) only one Bon Scott track - the bluesy "Ride On" .

The numbers include some real classics , such as "For Those About To Rock" and "Hells Bells" .

Personally , given a choice again , I would rather buy a Greatest Hits package than this - all of these songs , and more .

As many have commented here, this was indeed the soundtrack for now cult Stephen King trailer trash movie Maximum Overdrive.

This album is a soundtrack and features all the songs that were featured in the film itself that were performed by AC/DC (the film has excerpts from Wagner and an ice cream truck plays King of the Road as it's jingle) - bar a few short instrumentals from the movie (one of which is a sweet blues jam with some great solo work from Angus).

Who Made Who is the official theme song, with lyrics (particularly the chorus) taken indirectly from the movie script, and D.T. and Chase the Ace were both featured in the film during chase scenes or when the machines go beserk in some instances.

The rest of the tracks appear at different intervals depending on what the characters are doing - Ride On for instance, occurs during a quieter moment where things look bleak for the heroes in the film - it adds to the atmosphere (well what there is to be had in the film itself).

Who Made Who is a fine rocking album in it's own right (indeed, the title song is one of my all time favourite AC/DC tracks from the Johnson era), but it works better as a soundtrack album if you've actually seen the film, to work out why there are such curios as remixed versions of Sink the Pink and Shake Your Foundations - and no songs such as T.N.T., Highway to Hell (I guess even King thought that wasn't ironic enough a song for a bunch of folks being slaughtered by trucks at a truck stop, or maybe the band just wanted to be relevant with the current line up), or even Flick of the Switch, Rising Power - or some similar song that could contain dark humour to go with the film itself.

They maybe should have just released Who Made Who as an EP instead of an album, but Stephen King fans into hard rock should get it to complete part of his works - and if you're an Acca Dacca fan, you should do the same.

As an AC/DC album, it is certainly a stopgap, but if you don't have If You Want Blood (a true example of a greatest hits album - and live, when the band are at their best), Who Made Who isn't a bad time capsule of the early to mid 80's - though like Maximum Overdrive itself, it IS an acquired taste.
