AC/DC, the legendary multi-million-selling band, played their very first show on the 31st of December 1973 at Chequers Nightclub in Sydney, Australia. Now, 50 years later, AC/DC has thrilled their millions of fans by announcing the ‘POWER UP’ European tour for Summer 2024.

To honour AC/DC’s 50-year reign as the world’s greatest rock and roll band, Columbia Records/Legacy Recordings are proud to announce that the band’s catalog will be available as gold colored vinyl LPs. Each of these limited-edition LPs comes with an album-specific 12”x12” print featuring new AC/DC 50 artwork, suitable for framing. 

The first wave of releases includes the following nine classic albums. Further drops will follow later in the year.

BACK IN BLACK - Featuring You Shook Me All Night Long, Shoot To Thrill and the title track, it is the ‘best-selling studio album of all time by a band’.

HIGHWAY TO HELL – Released in 1980, it was AC/DC’s first hit album in the US. 

THE RAZORS EDGE – Features the classic single ‘Thunderstruck’, the video for which has been viewed over a billion times on YouTube.

POWERAGE – The classic 1976 album contains the single ‘Rock And Roll Damnation’, the band’s first European hit.

FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK (WE SALUTE YOU) – The iconic cover features a ‘Twelve-Pound Cannon’ from the 19th Century. The band still incorporate cannons into their live set to deafening effect.

HIGH VOLTAGE – The band’s international debut included tracks from their first two Australian albums.

DIRTY DEEDS DONE DIRT CHEAP – Initially unavailable in the U.S. for five years, the album eventually rose to #3 on the Billboard chart, selling over 6,000,000 copies.

WHO MADE WHO – AC/DC provided the songs for the soundtrack for Stephen King’s movie Maximum Overdrive, which included three brand new tracks including the hit title track.

LIVE - 1991’s double live album was recorded at Donnington Park & Birmingham in the UK, Edmonton in Canada and Moscow.
