Experience the raw, high-voltage energy of early AC/DC with the 1994 ATCO Records reissue of '74 Jailbreak. This essential 5-track compilation EP captures the band’s definitive hard-rock sound from their formative years, featuring the legendary Bon Scott on vocals. Despite its concise 24-minute runtime, this release delivers a powerful punch that rivals the band’s full-length classic LPs.
Remastered by the renowned Ted Jensen at Sterling Sound using the original master tapes, this CD reissue offers a fresh, high-definition clarity. Listeners will appreciate the crystal-clear percussion, tight-knuckled riffs, and a full-bodied sound that preserves the band’s "loud and simple" blues-infused boogie style.
Featured Tracks and Highlights:
- "Jailbreak": Features one of the most iconic and catchy riffs in rock history, complete with literal guitar-scraping sound effects.
- "Soul Stripper": A standout track known for its forbidding bluesy groove and "Soul Stripper" bass-driven feel.
- "Baby, Please Don’t Go": A "sizzling" cover of the R&B standard and a staple of the band’s early live performances.
- "Show Business" and "You Ain’t Got a Hold on Me": Tracks that showcase the band’s signature "choppy" power chords and laid-back boogie flair.
Whether you are a die-hard collector or a new fan, this remastered EP is a vital piece of rock history that perfectly bridges the gap between the band’s Australian roots and their international superstardom.
