Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally a highly sought-after promotional release intended solely for radio play, this recording captures the band playing live in a small New York recording studio. The incredibly intimate setting strips away the arena bombast, revealing the remarkably tight, swing-heavy boogie rock engine that powered the Bon Scott era.
