I have gradually accumulated all of AC/DC's discs, and Powerage was one of the last ones I bought. That was my loss, because it has jumped to the front of the line in terms of favorite hard rock cds. Malcolm and Angus come up with some of their best riffs ever, and Bon Scott is terrific. What I like most is the bluesiness of the tunes: "Down Payment Blues" is one of the best songs these boys have ever recorded. "Riff Raff" absolutely smokes. The production is excellent, featuring a stripped-down, no-frills guitar attack. Angus' solos are marvels of minimalism. This album is a definite peak in the band's long career. Sure, Highway to Hell is a great disc, but in many ways, Powerage is even stronger. In my opinion, this is the one AC/DC disc to own from the Bon Scott era.
