    I have had this copy of this record since 10th grade in 2007. I love it so much.

        After listening to Big Balls, I'm itching to give my review.
        These reviews are bouncing all over the place...
        It's a great sounding LP.

        Ride On jams so badass.

        Try the crabs!

          This is the '81 US release of the 1976 album by AC/DC. Lacquer cut by George Piros.

          Pretty decent audio. Definitely intended to be cranked up. AC/DC mixes always sound a little tubby to my ears(dual guitars), and without comparing this to an Aussie 1st press, I would have no opinion which might be better, If any.

          My copy is super clean with very quiet vinyl.
          3.5 stars. Recommended.

            My copy sounds just fine to my ears. Crisp, clear,, and done dirt powerful ⚡⚡⚡⚡!! I do have a black label Aussie copy of this and unless you really want to shell out the extra $$$, stick with this one. The track listing is different, but I'd recommend getting this pressing to jump start your DDDDC fix 😜.

              I getting this when I was a senior in high school! I love my copy! It’s Bon Scott!! Big Balls drove my mother crazy! Just to show one hears what one wants to hear, LOL!

                Seconding the underwhelming sound on this. I wouldn't spend more than $5 for this as a placeholder for a better copy later.

                  Content is a great, but US cut just sounds underwhelming. Need to seek an Australian Albert cut.
