Editorial Review:Amazon.com:While
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap sounds like every other AC/DC album, it is distinguished by a lyrical puerility spectacular even by Bon Scott's standards. Two tracks--"Love at First Feel" and "Squealer"--are ruminations on the morality of sex with schoolgirls. "Big Balls," ostensibly a narrative from the perspective of an aristocrat socialite, is actually a somewhat labored excuse for the band to chant "We've got big balls." This juvenile posturing was, to a large degree, AC/DC winding up their burgeoning foreign audience by playing to stereotypical expectations of Australians. On
Dirty Deeds, however, AC/DC try too hard. Only on "Ain't No Fun (Waiting Round to Be a Millionaire)" is Scott's laconic wit deployed to real effect: the sheer glee in the line "Get your fuckin' jumbo jet off my airport!" is almost worth the album's purchase price.

When this album was origionally released, AC/DC was virtually unknown in the U.S. With only one other album under their belt, DIRTY DEEDS was recorded in the same vain as HIGH VOLTAGE. High energy rock and roll only the way AC/DC can do it. The lyrics this time around, however, proved to be too controversial for American ears. Banned in the U.S. until they were household names in 1980, DIRTY DEEDS and it's naugthy songs about big balls and love at first feels was rock and roll's best kept secret. ...

but this is a good record. It's dynamic. "Dirty Deeds" & "Ride On" are my favorites. AC/DC [like most bands] was better when they were young. Bon Scott had a firmer grasp on the human condition than Brian Johnson, though both wrote a lot of songs about poon, ballzzz, getting drunk, & not being nice all the time. Back in Black and DDDDC are the only AC/DC records I can listen to... both have just enough soul and hooks to keep me interested. DDDDC is Angus's best work.

The original version of this brilliant album came out in Australia in 1976. I was just a nipper living in Melbourne Australia, where AC/DC were based at the time, when i first heard this album. I use to see and hear AC/DC alot on music shows like Countdown and even in the news as they were causing a furore in Australia. They were not a punk band and they never will be a punk band but i can see why, at the time this album came out, that they were mistaken for being a punk band. This album is raw and ...

One thing that is great about Dirty Deeds and AC/DC in their early years is that they seemed more willing to try new things and most of the time it worked. The main reason I like this one the best is because not many(maybe 2) of the songs sound the same and they are all great. A little history here: thre original realease from 1976 contained only 7 of the 9 songs here while "Rocker" and "Love At First Feel" were not. "Rocker" ws from TNT and "Love At First Feel" was a studio leftover. They replaced ...
