"Malcolm Young's solo album with little brother being fed his usual raw meat; George and Harry still in the shadows- probably just piano duty by now, helping to coax out the last great configurations of the genre this band stamped before the Hair scene- Malcolm now mature with the studio savvy to put his nuts on the line without big brother or Mutt. Pure vision, pure attitude, pure AC/DC essence, what Mal really envisioned in a band! Cut with live tracks and some of Phil Rudd's best right hooks; and Brian Johnson's last biblical studio session before the pipes burst (should have fired him after Wall); but we still love him- but Mal is stubborn you know! AND like I said before- and I really like the dude- but Nikki Sixx: You can wake up in a hundred body bags and live 200 years but you will still never make an album half as good as Flick of The Switch!"
A good solid AC/DC album!!!!!!!!!!

"This is a rock-solid album. This beats most of AC/DC's 80's albums, like BLOW UP YOUR VIDEO and FLY ON THE WALL. This is right up there with Back in Black and Highway to Hell and Black Ice. This beats the over rated LET THERE BE ROCK.
My reasoning is the fact that this album has a strong finish and ending. This album opens up with RISE IN POWER which shows the raw side of AC/DC. The track BEDLAM IN BELGIUM and GUNS FOR HIRE are very, very good tracks and a step down from that you have FLICK OF THE SWICH and NERVOUS SHAKEDOWN!!!
No bad... I have to say. This album is very underrated. I mean the album is solid, rock solid and it does feature highlights like, "Guns for Hire," "Bedlam in Belgium" and "Nervous Shakedown."
I rate this 4.5 stars, which averages to 5 stars (for your information)."

"I had this album on cassette for years, but wanted to download the tracks to my iPod so I purchased this CD. The sound quality is much better and apparently they remastered all of the songs anyway. I would recommend this album for any die hard AC/DC fans."

"after 3 albums with mutt lange ACDC decided to produce themselves. what you get is an album that sounds much in the same vien as BACK IN BLACK & FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK."
