AC/DC at their best, this is classic AC/DC if you dont have this album;get it you wont regret the purchase of this C D. this is one of their best albums. I've had this on cassette since way back in '86'. I even downloaded it from the internet ,and burned a copy to cd but it will play on everything except my x-box so i had to buy the CD just so i could listen to ac/dc while playing my x-box without using my i-pod ,zune,cd player or boombox .the mp3 files i have work on all these i listed just not my x-box and this is my favorite AC/DC album so it was worth the money for me to purchase it . THIS IS ROCK N ROLL AT IT'S BEST , WITH A GROUP THATS BEEN AROUND SINCE THE EARLY 70'S if you like rock n roll and dont own this album then what are you waiting for come on " BUY IT " !!!!!! ( IT MAKES GOOD GOOD SENSE , YES IT DOES ) GET OF YOUR ASS AND BUY ITRead full review
This has to be the first chapter in everybody's bible of rock , and a must have in any type of collection . This album has endured the test of time . 31 years in the making and still sounds as fresh as just being released yesterday . I reckon , not even the band themselves really envisaged what a mark this album would have left . It's so pure ! and stands engraved high on rock's mount olympus ! COLOSSAL SOUND!
Theres not much to say about this album that hasnt already been said. I will say this however: I was recently working on a 2 CD compilation of AC/DC to keep in my back up CDs. As I was trying to carefully pick and choose the best material off their 17+ albums (focusing on the late 70's-80's material and picking 3 to 5 tracks off of each record) it HIT me like a brick! You CANT pick any 3 or 4 songs off this record. Back in Black IS a perfect album. If you remove something, then the one is missing the other! The funny thing is that this fact surpised me. It shouldnt have, this record was perfect when it hit the record stores back in 81', and it is still a perfect, KICK-ASS record 30 years later. Any fan of sinister, HARD-hitting, bad boy rock music should have this in their collection. Back in Black may very well be THE perfect rock album. (in my opinion) G86Read full review
This CD is pretty much a classic by now but I it is still an awesome CD! Except for one or two songs this whole CD is filled with the best songs that you could listen to over and over again. True, you could download these songs of the internet for free but it would take you a while to get all the songs in a high quality copy so why not buy this CD for a couple bucks instead? AC/DC has influenced dozens of groups and artists over the last 30 years because of this CD. I could listen to it everyday!
Back in Black was a pivotal album by AC/DC. It was the first release right after the unfortunate and untimely loss of the the band's first and irreplaceable lead singer, Bon Scott. Many were excited for this release, many on the fence, and many wanted nothing to do with the new singer, Brian Johnson (from glam band, Geordie). To the delight of those in all 3 categories, the album monster hit. It was met with critical acclaim and fan approval. Most importantly, it kicked down a door that was formerly locked, bolted down and and closed to AC/DC, that was the door to mainstream radio play. After that door was kicked to splinters, the band marched through with hit after hit, album after album. But, Back in Black still stands as their flagship album; it is AC/DC's biggest selling album, holds the record as the second best-selling album of all time, and the biggest selling album by any band, with more than 49 million copies sold worldwide.Read full review
