The album produced by Albert Productions Australia comes in several variants. AC/DC T.N.T. LP Black Label Pressing and the AC/DC T.N.T Blue Kangaroo 1975 Alberts Aussie 1st Press Vinyl LP Record. There’s also a 1983 AC/DC T.N.T. Vinyl LP Red Label Pressing. They all sport a similar album cover of wooden planks with spraypainted titles over a rocky ground backdrop. The Kangaroo release comes in a gatefold sleeve and the records having blue center labels with the word STEREO above the titles.
The AC/DC T.N.T. Albert Productions Australia Vinyl LP Records For Collectors is one of the more sought after LPs by AC/DC by fans, as T.N.T. was only released in Australia in December 1975. While the tracks are readily available, there’s not many original vinyl copies to go around. Many original copies are available in secondary markets such as eBay and specialty collector shops such as Ozzy Collectibles.
T.N.T. is AC/DCs second album hot off the heels of High Voltage featuring bassist Mark Evans, drummer Phil Rudd, Bon Scott on vocals, Malcolm Young as rhythm guitar and Angus Young as lead guitarist. T.N.T. also marks the band’s shift from glam rock to blue collar hard-edged, rhythm and blues-based rock and roll. This era was also when the band was under fire for its smutty lyrics despite abandoning their glam image.
I believe that the politically correct term is “sexist.” Intellectuals like to put a tag on it and say, “these guys are out-and-out sexist.” I’ve always found there’s a two-sided thing when it comes to lyrics: someone can call a song “Sexy Motherfucker,” and be accepted, and yet we’ve been writing all songs all these years, and while there may be the rare “fuck” in the lyrics there somewhere, it’s all been quite clean cut. Still, people just make the assumption that we’re five guys who’ve just got our dicks in mind. People have frequently commented that for all the notoriety and things we got involved in, we could have capitalized on our reputation and said, “Oh yeah, we’re a piece of nasty work.” But why bother?
–Angus Young, Guitar World 1998
What’s great about having an original AC/DC T.N.T. Albert Productions Australia Vinyl LP Record For Collectors is better track renditions than what can be found in CD releases, with songs like “Can I Sit Next to You Girl”, “High Voltage” and “Rocker” being a little longer providing additional riffs segwaying into other songs. Modern releases are somewhat arranged differently.
