I have never heard a complete ACDC album, let alone own one. That is not a bad thing.


Ditto. It's like porno films. You've seen one, you've seen you want to see them all.
 
Fixed that for ya.  Approve
 
Yes I do own BIB.  I also own High Voltage, Dirty Deeds, Let There Be Rock and Highway To Hell.  I prefer Bon to Brian.
 
 
BIB is the only Johnson era AC/DC I own, although I've heard FTATR, Who Made Who and Ballbreaker.  I much prefer the Scott era too.  I own all of his albums except for Jailbreak.   I do think that after BIB all their stuff started to sound the same.  At least the albums I heard and the songs on the radio.  The Scott stuff was actually quite...interesting at times.  And still good for some fun every now and again. 
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

They used bagpipes once. If figure if you're going to transcend your self-imposed mold, you might as well do it with bagpipes.


OK so maybe I would like to hear that one! LOL

I refer you to the High Voltage album.  Track 1.  "It's a Long Way To the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)".

I have it and love it, along with around 10 other AC/DC albums.

I'm a bad fan: I still only have 4 albums from them (including Razor's Edge, which is not their best one).

Of course I own Back In Black (on tape however) alongside a hefty load of other AC/DC gems. I am a rock fan, not just specifically a progger although it is probably the best rock sub genre besides some of the better 60's hard rock and 90's grunge.
 P.S. AC/DC's best album is Powerage! Hell yeah!!!!!!! (air guitar!) Tongue

No, because I don't really like AC/DC.

What's up with that?  Does the whole Anti-Christ/Devil's Child offend your religious sensitivities?

Just don't care for their overall sound (guitar, vocals...the whole deal).

I like a few songs though.  "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" and "You Shook Me All night Long" are two I quite enjoy.

No. But I like to listen to the odd AC/DC-song now and then. Plus I saw them live when they supported the Rolling Stones - and loads of people seemed to be at the gig only to see AC/DC!

I did buy a copy of it once on CD.  I'm not sure if I still have it.

Got it on vinyl at the time of the release. Still worth listening to for Hells Bells and the title track. Not too bothered about the rest.

I plan to buy 'dirty deeds done dirt cheap', as I like it very much. I don't really care for the other albums albeit, their rendition of "baby pleased don't go" is rather amazing. 
 
And as we are on a prog site, Chris Slade (Manfred Mann's Earthband) did a great job on 'Razor's edge'.

I can't say for sure ... I think I saw it (or another AC/DC record) in the stack of records I got from my parents. But I haven't quite finished going through that yet, so...

No, though I'm familiar with the album. When it was released, I listened to the radio almost non-stop, and it was impossible not to hear any songs from it. Anyway, I've never really been into AC/DC - way too one-dimensional for my tastes, though I recognize their importance.
