The dueling guitars of the Young brothers, still combined here with the superlatively demonic tones of original singer Bon Scott, have never been better showcased as on this live album from AC/DC's 1978 Powerage tour. Masters of the killer riff, AC/DC were in full command of the tongue-in-cheek Australian energy that's served them so well. Angus Young's crackling lead guitar and Scott's leering menace and humor make for a superlatively potent brew.
 
Above all, their music has a real sense of dynamics, space, and pace. Blood is essential listening for metal fans, but in particular don't miss "Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be," "Whole Lotta Rosie," and "Problem Child."
