Everybody knows how great Back in Black is, but I've been listening to it on CD or Apple Music for so long I forgot how much better vinyl sounds.

The first album from the new group, Back in Black, was issued only five months after Scott's passing but immediately rocketed up the charts, eventually becoming one of rock's all-time classics. AC/DC have been going around for a long time now - check them out on You tube if you haven't heard them before. Rock rarely gets better than AC/DC's Back in Black, and rock has rarely sounded better than it does on this all-analog pressing mastered from the original mix-down two-track master tapes by George Marino.

Producer Robert John "Mutt" Lange, who had previously worked with AC/DC on Highway to Hell, was again brought in to produce. The inner sleeve shows black-and-white live pictures of the band members, except for Brian Johnson, who was new in the band at the time and hasn't performed yet with AC/DC. By the late 1970s, AC/DC began to achieve significant popularity outside their native Australia, with high-energy live performances and a string of successful albums.

Produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange, the album was released on 25 July 1980 by Albert Productions and Atlantic Records.
