1979’s Highway to Hell is Australian Proto-Metal/Hard Rock band AC/DC’s high water mark. And last album ever recorded with their fantastic original Vocalist, Bon Scott. There is nothing fancy or the least bit pretentious here. this album is raw, driving, in your face Hard and Heavy Guitar Rock. Some of the greatest and most powerful songs AC/DC ever recorded over a long career are right here. Including the amazing, simmering ode to danger and terror Night Prowler, and the epic aggro-fest If You Want Blood You Got It. Then there’s the blazing and unrepentant title track, the snarling Shot Down In Flames and raunchy Love Hungry Man. If You only own one AC/DC album it needs to be Highway To Hell, this defines the word classic. —Karl
