As requested by many, here’s a vinyl-rip of the second AC/DC album 1975 LP “T.N.T.“, in its original New Zealand version, the same as the Australian pressing.
As many already know, the first two AC/DC albums only were released in Australia and New Zealand, titled ‘High Voltage’ and ‘TNT’, both ’75, with different album cover art. The next year there was the first international AC/DC album release, also titled ‘High Voltage’ but taking songs from these 2 original LP’s, remixed, edited, etc.
However many fans still prefer this original 1975 “T.N.T.”, with classic songs like ‘The Jack’ or ‘It’s A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock ‘N’ Roll) in its original mix, raw, in your face, not edited / cut as happened with some later for its international release.
Released via Albert Productions records, these initial vinyl pressings are priceless collector’s pieces now. This is taken from the 1981 New Zealand vinyl reissue, sonically the same as the 1975 original.
These LP sound quality is terrific. This “T.N.T.” LP is dynamite indeed, with a great soundstage and a nice channel separation. Yeah, this is AC/DC at its primal, Bon Scott in its purest form. This is rock n’ roll folks…
You gotta listen to this; the sound quality of this vinyl-rip is outstanding.
For the first time in decades, the original 1975 Australian versions of ‘High Voltage’ and ‘T.N.T.’ were reissued on vinyl 2024 and were available only at the AC/DC Dive Bars last Summer. These albums were never before released outside of Australia. Pressed in limited quantities, of course sold out in a few days.
This classic rock n’ roll.
