- Best AC/DC Album
- While Back in Black probably is top to bottom a great album. This has to be the best AC/DC album of all time. There are at least 2 if not 3 songs on this album better than any on Back in Black. This is one of my favorite albums ever and I would recommend it to anybody.
If you like this album, The Razor's Edge, High Voltage, and Back in Black are AC/DC's other great albums and you will enjoy them too. I'd also recommend '74 Jailbreak because Jailbreak is a great song. - 2008-05-04, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Classic album that sounds awsome!
- I'm not going to waste my time describing this album because I'm pretty sure all AC/DC fans are familiar with it. The thing is that I really don't understand how a reviewer said that this remastered cd sounded bad. The sound is clean and clear. The guitars are more "alive" than the original cd version. If you don't own a copy, by all means go buy one. Walmart sells all of the Epic remasters for $9.72. I even saw some of them for $8.64.

- great CD
- the last good AC/DC album. last one with Bon Scott, who drank too much and ended up drowning in his own sick in 1980

- One of the greatest metal bands
- Nobody does straightforward, balls-out hard rock better than AC/DC. This was the album that really made their name in the US, and unfortunately it was lead singer Bon Scott's last before his untimely death. New singer Brian Johnson would later do an admirable job behind the mike, but "Highway to Hell" arguably remains the band's greatest achievement. Every track is a winner (although "Night Crawler" drags a bit).

- Awesome Album Ruined by Loudness War
- "The Sound on this cd is SO much louder than the original" "This has got to be the best this album has ever sounded" Yeah, right. Highway to hell is one of the latest victims of the loudness war, and this cd is compressed to death. Clipping is evident and the sound is consistently grating. Too bad increases in technology mean worse sounding cds. Pick up the orginal Atlantic cd - its much more dynamic - and consequently better sounding. And to those who say older cds are mastered not as loudly as todays - yeah, that's the point - more dynamic range. If it's not loud enough, guess what? All you have to do is turn up the volume. Best AC/DC album ruined by HORRIBLE mastering
