the most famous work of AC / DC ...

* Highway To Hell * first appeared in 1979 and is together with the successor album * Back In Black * still the most popular disc of AC / DC. The disc contains the title song AC / DC's biggest hit. One hit the far was beyond the boundaries of hard rock genre one of synonyms for AC / DC, and probably also ensures that provides the disc beyond the rock listeners still for a ready market.

Or undecided music fans leads to the right path of virtue, because * * Highway To Hell is not only one of the most successful hard rock recordings ever, but is generally regarded as the best disc of AC / DC. But I think that daring for some, because to Bon, Angus & Co already * Let There Be Rock * and * * Powerage had thrown into the hard-rocking pan, the one at that rocked a due pounds more. The production of Robert Lange leaves the disc namely resound something commercially and unfortunately can not really all songs keep the level that the opener had given.

Boredom still not there on the album, but it was polished to many rough edges and wegproduziert what makes the disk seem somewhat uncharacteristically tame. Somehow I still speculate about how the songs would probably have sounded when Vanda and Young had been permitted to produce, but that is pointless. With * Highway To Hell * followed finally deserved international breakthrough. Unfortunately, passed away on February 19, 1980 singer Bon Scott, leaving a gap that could only partially fill his successor Brian Johnson.

CONCLUSION: classic, but produces too commercial ...
