| Notes |
| Originally Released as Atlantic #80100 on August 15, 1983Digitally Remastered from the original Master Tapes by George Marino at Sterling SoundFor Flick of the Switch, AC/DC jettisoned producer Mutt Lange in an attempt to recapture the rawness and simplicity of their early records. While they more or less succeed in terms of the record's sound, and show more energy than on the preceding For Those About to Rock (We Salute You), the songs themselves suffer - AC/DC's music has always been simple, but here it sounds underdeveloped and unmemorable. As perhaps indicated by the record's idiotic original title, the utterly generic I Like to Rock, AC/DC seemed to be running out of ideas at an alarming rate, and their record sales began to reflect that fact. |
