Sound: Yes my fellow rockers this album is perhaps one of the best classic rock albums of the late '70s and the last AC/DC album with Bon Scott as their front man before he died. The album has AC/DC's classic style of pounding rock and ace riffs and solos. This album contains the awesome track Highway To Hell that really shows us what this band is made of the intro is absolutely awesome; metal my friends, pure rock and roll metal! Just listen to Highway and try to say that opening riff doesn't make you want to play air guitar. Well does it? And there is more, more great tracks such as walk all over you, touch to much and of course night prowler. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The last AC/DC album with Bon Scott as their front man before he died. The album has AC/DC's classic style of pounding rock and ace riffs and solos and Bon Scott's awesome lyrics. // 9

Impression: The albums most impressive songs include Highway To Hell, Girls Got Rhythm, Walk All Over You, and Get It Hot. This album is a classic and any rock fan should own a copy; I do and I love it. // 10

Sound: Highway To Hell, this has to be one of the greatest albums ever released. In a lot of other albums, there are strong songs, but also some very weak songs (kind of like "one hit wonders"). But in Highway To Hell every song is strong and they all vary in style. The song Highway To Hell is of course one the most known songs in rock history because it rocks! Girls Got Rhythm has some great guitar riffs. Walk All Over You is an all out rocker with its tempo shifts and heavy rhythem guitar (thanks to Malcom Young). Touch Too Much is an excellent song and has some of AC/DC's finest lyrics. Beating Around the Bush is one of my favorites with its great organization and great guitar from Angus. Shot Down In Flames is also one of my favorites and is one of Bon's greatest concert songs. Get It Hot is a great dance tune by AC/DC. If You Want Blood (You Got It) is definately a top notch, frantic rocker. Love Hungry Man is a great song and links If You Want Blood to Night Prowler. Here's a fun fact: the members of AC/DC didn't like Love Hungry Man as a song, but I don't know why. Night Prowler is an awesome song with its emotive solos and heavy lyrics. Night Prowler is a little "darker" than most AC/DC songs, but it's ended in a joking mood by Bon using an out of character line "Shazboz, nano nano". Highway to Hell captures Bon at his best. Too bad it was his final album with AC/DC as he died less than a year after making it. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The lyrics of Highway To Hell are definately some of the best, most imaginative of any AC/DC album. Bon even drops one of his more clever lines in Touch Too Much, "She's got the body of Venus with arms". Critcis were always saying that all of AC/DC's songs were the same, all being about sex and drinking. But that's what we have all come to know and love, right? Also, many highly religious people think that Highway To Hell is an ode to the devil, but it is just a rock and roll song played by a rock and roll band. Anyway, the lyrics and the guitar parts are organised very well and neither is overshadowed by the other. This album also shows that Bon Scott is one of the greatest singers and song-writers that ever lived. // 10

Impression: Highway To Hell is definately one of greatest albums of all time. If you love AC/DC, or just rock in general, you should definately go out and buy it if you haven't already. Every song is a hit on this album. They all rock. My only regret about this album is that it is Bon's last. // 10

Sound: I think Highway To Hell is an amazing album becouse it's so down to earth rocking album. AC/DC are a hard rock band with a fun and dirty sound. The songs are so different styles such as "Highway To Hell" gets you going and just makes you want to shred the guitar with Angus Young jaw dropping solos and Bon Scotts singing. "Girls Got Rhythm"is an upbeat song with a great upbeat rhythm and Bon Scott singing about girls, girls and girls. Bon Scott tragically died in a Pub in 1979. Meaning this was AC/DC's last album with Bon Scott. This album consists of rock, hard rock, blues and classic rock. This album should be in the top 10 albums in rock history. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: Girls are the order of the day on this album for Bon Scott. The thing that stands out the most on this album, lyrically is Bon Scotts anthemic chanting on Highway To Hell which just blowed me away. The Lyrics fit in with the rythm of the guitars and drums and Angus Youngs solos all over the record. Bon Scott arguably is one of the greatest Frontman of all time. // 10

Impression: Overall this album just is fantastic and this style of music inspired 1000's of musicians all around the world. AC/DC sold more albums than any other Rock Band. Which really says something about them. AC/DC are better than the crappy modern bands today (yes I'm referring to emo). "Highway To Hell", "Girls Got Rhythm", "Walk All Over You" and "Touch Too Much" are my favourites of the album. If this was stolen I will find out who stole it rob his house and give him a black eye. I love This album and AC/DC always will inspire me. // 10

Sound: Highway to Hell for me is probably one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time. It's the classic sound of ac/dc as always with Bon's cheeky but always witty lyrics, Angus's timeless blues riffing, Malcolm's impecable rhythm work, Cliff's simple, groovy but powerhouse basslines, and Phil Rudd's solid drumming. Every song for me on this album is just timeless, and every one just conjures a image of them having a right laugh while recording it, which is what makes 'Dc my favourite band. It's always been about the rock and roll and having fun to them which gives me great respect for them. For a new listener to DC, this is them at their best, and should be sitting pretty in any rockers collection. Absolute masterpiece. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The lyrics are classic textbook DC, expect plenty of lyrics about booze, women rock and roll and all of the above. Angus and Malc's cheeky, but never old riffs complement Bon's cheeky, innuendo lyrics perfectly. Bon, in my opionion was one of the finest, If not THE finest voice in rock. // 10

Impression: This album doesn't compare to anything, it's just too good. My favourite song from the album probably just has to be Touch Too Much, it's such a groovy little song, with a brilliant sing along chorus. Every song is great on this album, and I hate nothing about it, only the fact that Bon is no longer with us to continue singing these timeless pieces of rock history. If it was stolen, I would be glad that someone is so desperate to listen to AC/DC they resorted to stealing it. As long as it keeps the kids off of commercial rubbish like 50 Cent and My Chemical Romance, then it would help me sleep better. Buy this album now, or you are not a true rocker. // 10

Sound: The sound of Highway to Hell is perfect. Angus's guitar sound is perfect and he has a slew of good riffs. There is honestly nothing I like hearing more than when Angus hits that A Chord on the opening part of Highway to Hell. The guitar solos are also good. Phil Rudd on drums is very good, his simple drumming is the driving, energetic part of AC/DC's songs. Bon Scott is arguably the best part about this album, truly the sound of a hard rocker. In my opinion, Bon is the one of the best if not the best hard rock/metal singer ever. The sound of AC/DC is truly their strong point, proving that they are arguably the greatest hard rock/metal band ever. R.I.P. Bon Scott 1946-1980. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The lyrics are great, honestly near perfect. Highway to Hell's lyrics are rebellious, ("Hey Mama, Look at me, I'm on my way to the promise land") Ha. If your extremely christian, I wouldn't buy this album besides the fact the album is entitled Highway to Hell, some of lyrics are offensive towards Christan in the song If You Want Blood You've Got It, which is ironically, my favorite song on the album (I'm not satantic). Overall, perfect. // 10

Impression: I'm am one of the biggest AC/DC fans around, and I would say this is my favorite album by them besides Back in Black. This is also easily Bon's best album. The best part of this album is AC/DC's sound. Every aspect of it perfect. Angus is one of the best guitar players ever, not because of techicall playing, but because of the tone of his guitar and the riffs he plays. Nobody is better at creating riffs than the Young Brothers, Angus and Malcolm. As I have said before, Bon Scott is arguably the greatest hard rock/metal singer ever, but it's difficult to describe his singing, it's a mix of a scream, razor sharp voice, and just pure good singing. You need to buy this album even if you have never heard of AC/DC or never really cared for the music, because, I can guarntee you, you will enjoy listening this album. The best songs are Highway to Hell, Walk Over You, Girls Got Rhythm, Touch Too Much, and my favorite, If You Want Blood (You've Got It). Trust me, this is one of the greatest hard rock/metal albums of all time. Truly a Masterpiece. Long live AC/DC. // 10

Sound: Yes, it's true everyone: Highway to Hell is indeed the final album produced with legendary frontman Bon Scott before his death in 1980. And what a final album it is! Their sixth album realeased at the time in 1979, it was the first of three to incorporate the world renound rock producer John "Mutt" Lange. Wiht his expertise in enhancing the production value of songs, Bon's lyrical and sexual charisma at an all time peak, Angus absolutely tearing it up with furious solos, and the trio of Malcom, Cliff, and Phil providing remarkable rythm throughout, this is in my opinion their greatest album ever. Every single song on here perfectly melds the art of brilliant lyrics with the some of the most intense riffs and solos you will ever experience. I honestly can't tell which I love more: The lusty wordplay or Angus's non-stop guitar! I cannot possibly select any favorites, but I will simply say that there is no turning off this album after the opening track of Highway to Hell. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: During his tenure as Ac/Dc's vocalist, Bon exceeded everyones expectations of him as a lyricist time and time again. This album is absolutely no different. While every song showcases his fluid use of subjects such as sex, sex, and more sex, my personal favorites would include Touch Too Much ("She's got the body of Venus with arms"), If You Want Blood You Got It ("Feelin like a Christian/locked in a cage/thrown to the lions/on the second page"), and Girls Got Rythm ("Enough to stop a freight train/or start the third World War"). All in all, pure lust is exuded from all ten tracks in one form or another. Bon also showcases his humorous side with the soft spoken Robin Williams quote "Shazbot-Nano-Nano" at the end of the near freightening Night Prowler. And, as always, Bon's unmistakable high pitched screeching works flawlessly with the rest of the music and really gets your blood pumpin. // 10

Impression: If you consider yourself a rock fan and do not own this album, I suggest you slap youself right about now. This master piece does not receive nearly as much credit as it deserves. Simple yet intense guitar riffs, enough solos to dive you insane attempting to learn all of them, and one of the absolute best vocalist/lyricist in rock history, how can you not buy it? // 10

Sound: This album is honestly probably one of my all time favorites. I listen to it all the time. The sound of the album is sick. Angus Young deffinatly proves himself as a great with this album. Bon Scott has a real badass voice that brings it all together. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: Lyrics arn't something you'll have to think about for the day to figure out what the meening is but atleast they get the point across. I think the lyrics work well with the sound anyway. So I think there great... // 10

Impression: If you do or don't play guitar this album will want to make you pick up a guitar and never put it down. Atleast it did for me. I couldn't stop trying to play the songs and solos on this album.

Buy this damn album, there isn't one song not worth listening too. // 10

Sound: This is my personal favorite album by AC/DC. It's an amazing CD with 10 power driven tracks that will will blow you away. This was AC/DC's last album with their first frontman Bon Scott before he tragecially died in 1979. This CD is all hard rock with the highlights of the CD being "Highway To Hell", "Touch Too Much", "Shot Down In Flames", and "If You Want Blood (You got It)". // 10

Lyrics and Singing: Singer of the time Bon Scott, was quite the showman and his voice fit the band perfectly for their sex, party, power, rock n' roll songs. He, along with the Young brothers wrote the songs and delivered some great hard rock songs.The lyrics of the songs display everything I mentioned above and more. // 10

Impression: This album is definitely one of my favorite albums. The songs are all great on this CD with catchy riffs and face melting solos. I love every song on this album and can listen to it over and over again. Hopefully I never misplace this album because that would leave me one great album short. // 10

Sound: On this album, we hear a band thats is more professional. Compare this towards "High Voltage" then you will hear! They've gotten a new producer, Robert John Lange, and he pulls that little extra out of the band. The way Angus and Malcolm fills up each other, Bon's magnificent voice, Rudd's drumming skill and Cliff's bass work sounds totally awesome on earlier albums, and here they're even better! The sound of this album is hard-rock and sometimes blues (listen to Nightprowler). // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The lyrics are consists of mostly one theme: sex and girls. Rumore says that girls got pregnant only by listening to "Beating Around The Bush." There are only one song who doesn't have those topics, that's the album starter Highway To Hell. If you listen to the first line in Girls Got Rhythm, you'll here the skill of Bon. The way he uses his voice, if gives me cold down my back. And when Malcolm and Cliff enters as backing vocal you reach a high peak on the song. They've got great singing skills to back Bon. Its hard to describe it, you got to hear it! As with all AC/DC songs, the lyrics fit the music perfect, Bon is a superb songwriter. // 10

Impression: Compared to the other albums, I would say that this is the best, "Back In Black" is right behind it. The most impressive song got to be "Girls Got Rhythm," but the best riff is "Beating Around The Bush." I don't hate this album, I only love it! This is the best guitarmusic you can get. If it where lost I would run to the store to get a new one. If you don't have this, you miss something in your life. // 10

Sound: Highway To Hell has a great sound to it. Bon Scott's vocals go right along with the music. Malcom's guitar is basic but it sounds good and thats what realy counts. Drums are a little better than earlier albums if you listen, bass is not that good but it's AC/DC and that should sorta be expected. And Angus sounds great as always. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The lyrics are not bad. As I had said earlier the vocals go right along with the music. If you realy listen though the lyrics are not that great but they sound better than the lyrics that they wrote after this album writen by Brian Jonshon. They are not as good and Bon would also be a part of the music and say whatever he wanted no matter how it sounded. So I guess I would would give them a low 5. // 10

Impression: This is probebly my favorite AC/DC album even over "Back In Black." It sucks that Bon died he was a great singer and he fit AC/DC, but to be honest they probebly would not have been any where near as big as they where if he would not have died. This is the last album they recorded with him and it sounds great. Well, if you listen to AC/DC or just sorta like them you should get this album it's totaly worth it. And if you like this album I would also suggest "High Voltage" and "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap," they're pretty good. // 10

Sound: This is Bon Scott's finest record ever. The music is pure hard Rock and Roll and it does not dissapoint. This album sounds awesome nice heavy guitar riffs and face melting solos. This album is one of AC/DC's all time greatest album and is a Rockin Album. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The song writing from Angus, Malcom and Bon are very well done. Songs like Highway to Hell mean different things to alot of people but the meaning is the hard concert life of the group. Other great songs are Walk All Over You and If You want Blood You got It are very well written songs that stand out and are very awesome to listen too. // 10

Impression: AC/DC is a group that has come a long way and no artist can compare the sounds that come from that album. This album is very high energy and for and AC/DC fan like me this is a must have, great dricing record or just listening to your self. I give it Overall 5 because its a album that rocks and shouldnt be put down // 10

I agree with Rosencrantz. AC/DC does not take much talent to play. In my opinion, talent is overrated. I know people that can play so mind bogglingly fast that it all looks like a blur. But, at the end of the day, there is no melody or feel to their song. Melody sense and Rhythm is much more important. AC/DC has that, and that is what makes them good. Do not confuse talent with melodic sense, they are two totally different things.

Also, I do play guitar, and have been playing for two years. Not only that, but I have a good knowledge of music theory, not that it means much.

One of the best classic rock albums of all time,period! Love the bluesy feel of touch too much and beating around the bush and hte all out rockers like Walk all over you and shot down in flames.

Ask anyone who AC-DC is and they would usally know. Highway to hell has to be one of their greatest songs, and belongs with the 100 worlds greatest songs. I just cant get enough of their music.
BTW their solos are sort of hard to play, along with any good solo, but as long as you memorise the tabs and play it slow over and over untill its stuck in your brain, head, and mind, you will be sweet.

ACDC's music is simple. But that's the beauty of it. They take such a simple riff and rock the shit out of it. Cheesy...maybe...kick ass...def. If you don't headband to ACDC, play air guitar, or roll around like Angus on the floor, then you don't know how to rock. Seriously. ACDC is completely kick ass.

To all of you about to rock.....salute them, they are the best classic rock band ever..the energy in the music is intensified in the live shows, suggestion....get Donnington 91 on DVD, turn it up to 11 and rock! Highway to hell is one of the best rock albms of all time, for me Powerage is a close second, with BIB third, I agree with the comment above playing solos at warp factor 9 does not equal good music, ACDC have it all, great lyrics great tunes! there's always a debate over BJ or Bon, get over yourselves, I personally prefer Bon and the earlier stuff, but kinda get BJ, especially on rock'n'roll aint' noise pollution.....with AC/DC remember this.....Keep it simple.....

Technically, they've been retired since 2000 (Stiff Upper Lip), but are supposed to be recording their new album now. AC/DC have it right - a good band is a band with good songs, not a band with insanely fast songs like DragonForce. AC/DC are the best band in the world, and out of all of their albums (of which I have them all), the only one I don't really like is Blow Up Your Video, and that's only coz I haven't give it a decent listen to. Highway To Hell is 3rd best album of all time, beat only by High Voltage and Back In Black, and that is very close.

Highway to Hell is the most classic album AC/DC ever put together. Not their other albums aren't awesome. The rest of them are classics too. But it seemed they were destined to make this particular album right before Bon Scott died. Angus inspired me to pick up the guitar. And without this album, I'd probably be a chior boy. This is one one album all guitar players should sit down and listen to.

I love highway to hell! Bon is one of rocks best singers! No offense to Brian but for me the voice of Ac/Dc is and always will be Bon Scott!

This album is like a right of passage for any hard rock fan. I've probably had this cd since i was fifteen and it sounds as awesome to me now as it ever did.

Touch Too much is the best song along with Highway to Hell I like Bon Scott's versatility of his voice compared to Brian's wailing but they are both awesome I still prefer the Bon era

Highway To Hell is an awesome album. Def. one of my favorites of all time. I like the Brian Johnson and Bon Scott eras of AC/DC equally. So I've never really been disappointed with any of their albums. This is one of their best. "Walk All Over You" has a killer intro.

God this one was good. This has been voted one of the greatest albums of all time in many polls, including greatest guitar tone.

i agree with the guy above me ,i mean ac/dc is the best there will probably ever be.... kids today dont have imagination when it comes to rocking on the guitar ... they do the same crap over and over...rock on AC/DC
WHAT? how can u say kids today have no imagination and play the same thing over and over when ACDC has released the same album 16 times they are repetitive and boring by owning this album ur not missing out on anything else they've written
