Dog Eat Dog is another classic ACDC
tune. The drumbeat is one of the coolest on the album. The
guitar work is still in lower gear but sounds interesting.
Let There Be Rock, the title song kicks in the fast hard driving
guitar we all know and love. Angus and Malcolm get right after
it. The song is a little long but it rocks and you really don't
notice it. In fact I find myself wishing it didn't have to end
so soon.
Bad Boy Boogie has a hard driving riff line. The sound is kind
of groovy with a nice strip tease section in the middle. Yep
this is the new song for Angus to strip in the live shows. Prior
to this you always see Angus stripping to Baby Please Don't Go.
When Angus does his strip tease he sometimes moons the audience.
It's likely around this point is the time when they started
thinking about dropping Baby Please don't go from their live
show roster.
Problem Child shows up at least 4 times on International
releases. It is a great ACDC song and Bon Scott would introduce
the song to be written about Angus. It's cunning lyrics remind
me of my youth as a problem child, and my Momma still hates me!
Overdosed On You is saturated with distortion and electricity.
It's powerful riff and hard driving beat forces the even the
nerdish to play air guitar along with this song.
Hell Aint A Bad Place To Be brings out the devil in me too. What
a song, the fuzzy distorted guitars pound out a cool basic riff
and the crunchy solo sounds terrific. Bon's vocals tear up the
vinyl.
Whole Lotta Rosie is an ACDC classic. Bon Scott said the song
was about a real big lady. I also read it really was about a
groupie that bounced Bon around like a rag doll and forced him
to satisfy her. Bon said she scared him so he did what she
wanted. The experience was obviously impressionable enough to
write a song about.
Let There Be Rock is a must have for any real ACDC fan. This
collection of tunes contains some of ACDC's best work ever and
Bon Scott is singing 'em. I've been listening to this album for
26 years and still think it rocks.
