AC/DC
Stiff Upper Lip (2000)
Mostly forgettable album. Has one really great track (title track), and a few others that are "OK" (Safe in New York City, House of Jazz, & Satellite Blues), but isn't the greatest AC/DC album.
Before it was released, there were interviews saying that this was going to be the best AC/DC album since "Back in Black". Boy was that wrong.
Ballbreaker (1995)
Probably the most solid Brian Johnson era AC/DC album except Back in Black, of course. Lots of good stuff here. My favorites here are Ballbreaker, Cover you in Oil, & Boogieman. Also features the return of the Back in Black band with the return of drummer Phil Rudd. It didn't get as much attention as it deserved, though. Definitely worth checking out - can't go wrong with this one.
The Razor's Edge (1990)
I bought all the AC/DC albums in between For Those and this one when they were current, but none were keepers, and over the years got dumped (most 'of em when I completely abandonded pre-recorded cassette tape).
This was the best "album" they made since Back in Black... Best tracks here are Moneytalks, Thunderstruck, & The Razors Edge. It was pretty solid front front to back (but not as solid as Highway to Hell & Back in Black). A good more modern AC/DC album.
Decent, if not great follow-up to Back in Black. Has some totally killer songs (title track is one). The last of the three Mutt Lange produced AC/DC albums (Highway & Back in Black were the others). Title track is great here. None of the other tracks stand out as classics, though.
When this album was new, I was 16. At the time I was REALLY into it, as it was the first new AC/DC to come out after I had started listening to 'em. It hasn't held up well over time though.
Probably AC/DC's greatest album of all time. Fitting it's a tribute album (sort of) to the late Bon Scott. This was also my first rock and roll record I ever got (back in 1980). Before this, I was listening to mostly disco.
As this was my first ever rock record, I kind of felt compelled to pick it up as a remaster. Plus I got the remaster for under $10, so that was a bit of a no brainer.
Highway to Hell (1979)
By far the best of the Bon Scott era albums. Nothing's close. There's greatness all over this disc, not a single weak spot, IMO.
It's just a shame this was Bon's final work. I wonder how good the next album would have been with him on it. It turns out the next album was the best one AC/DC ever made, but I would have to imagine it would have been different with Bon still behind the mike.
