Amazon.co.uk Review: What Highway to Hell has that Back in Black doesn't is Bon Scott, AC / DC's original lead singer who died just months after this album was released. Scott had a rusty, raspy, scream of a voice, like he might break into a coughing fit at any moment. In other words, on crunchy, hook-heavy metal classics like the title track and on "Get It Hot" which is more roadhouse rock than metal, he had the perfect instrument for such wild-living anthems. Too perfect, it turned out. --David Cantwell

Rating: - AC/DC at their finest
If I had to pick my 10 favourite albums of all time this would have to be in the top 3. It is by a fair margin the best album AC/DC has ever produced. Bon Scott's voice is at its peak and the whole band just rocks. It's a shame that Bon died so young as he had the finest voice in rock and even to this day I can't think of anyone who comes close. If you only buy one AC/DC album then make it this one.
Rating: - Rock at its best
This has to be one of the greatest rock albums of all time, and for me AC/DC`s second best after the previous "Powerage".The production on this is excellent, recently purchased this on cd as my vinyl copy is on its last legs.Great to hear it again, where do you start,all great tunes but stand out for me are,Highway to hell,walk all over you,If you want blood and touch to much.

Rating: - HARD ROCK...........................
What can anyone find to say about AC/DC that is not all praise? - One of the best rock bands of all time! - This superb album contains the AC/DC rock anthem "Highway To Hell". Angus and Bon are shown at their rocking best, giving it all they've got. Through a series of memorable songs, we terminate in "Night Prowler" - Bon's way of saying "goodbye" - a really creepy number that makes the hair stand up on the neck.
Whilst this is not my favourite AC/DC album, falling short of "Let There Be Rock", ... Read More
Rating: - Legends of Rock just before they peak
What an album. 10 songs of utter rock genius.
This is by far in my opinion AC-CD's second best album after Back to Black.
Highway to Hell is more like Highway to Rock Heaven.
How can you not buy this re-mastered album at £4.99.
Rating: - Best Rock and Roll statement since Chuck Berry
This album contains the best riffs, the best rhythm and the best raunchy vocals ever! Nuff Said.
