The Razors Edge for me, so many great albums to choose from, in my opinion AC/DC only made one lousy album and that is "Blow Up Your Video"

WHAT?!??! YOU DIDN'T PUT "POWERAGE" ON THERE?!??!?!
Shame on you! Most hardcore fans I've met say that's their favorite. Many bands say it's their favorite too (from Redd Kross to Mudhoney). And it's mine too.

Highway To Hell. Has their best song ever, "Touch Too Much" and my second all-time favorite "Night Prowler". Never understood all the love for the title track but "Girls Got Rhythm, Walk All Over You, Shot Down In Flames" are as good as anything on Back In Black.

Highway to Hell without question, then Powerage, then Back in Black.
However, I disagree with rw2516, "If You Want Blood (You Got It)" is the best song on Highway, then "Touch Too Much".

I've always found that having the Live Collector's Edition and then a couple of other key albums is all the AC/DC I need, as they seem to all sound alike, so the 2-disc edition of Live is what I will pick to listen to about 90% of the time.

For me it's Highway To Hell. Back in the day, I literally wore out three copies of the album on vinyl from playing it so much. It was also one of the very first CD's I ever bought, not too long after those first came on the market, too. I also agree with macnorton that the album's highlight is "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)".
And while I don't feel quite the same about it, nodeerforamonth is right that you should have had Powerage on that list. It should be there instead of Ballbreaker, which is easily one of the band's weakest albums.

Highway To Hell so easily I don't have to think twice about it. While less "raw" and more polished than their earlier efforts, in terms of songwriting, musicianship, and production this is their most consistently high-quality album ever released.
Except "Love Hungry Man"... that's the only tune I never really liked.
Wait someone voted for "The Razor's Edge"? REALLY? Ugh...

Can't wait to see them in concert again in a couple weeks... Too bad the closest venue was Toronto. But it's worth it and now I'll be able to say I've traveled to another country just to see them live. I'm consistently amazed at Angus' level of energy and physical exertion during the entire concert and he is the primary reason that they are the best concerts I've been to! To Angus' credit, it's really saying something when I can admit to getting excited to see another man performing a striptease.

I was wondering the same thing. Flick seems to be the forgotten AC/DC album for some bizarre reason. It's got a lot of great tracks, though.
