AC/DC: High Voltage (1976)

AC/DC's Australian debut, released only in Australia and New Zealand, is also called High Voltage. Two of the tracks on this release -- She's Got Balls & Little Lover --  are taken from the debut. The rest of the tracks --

It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)
The Rock 'N' Roll Singer
The Jack 
Live Wire 
T.N.T. 
Can I Sit Next To You Girl 
High Voltage 

-- are culled from T.N.T, the band's second record, which was also limited to Australia and New Zealand. 

This is a fine record. The only track that does little for me is The Jack. It's not terrible, but it;s a little boring. Some of the reviews for this record were harsh and unjustified. I think the reviewers missed the point entirely.
