Offered here is a stunning and collectible Canadian pressing of AC/DC’s 1978 powerhouse album Powerage, released by Atlantic Records under catalog number KSD 19180. What makes this copy especially rare and sought after is its striking translucent red vinyl, a limited variant produced in Canada that has become a grail item for die-hard fans and vinyl collectors alike.

Powerage marks a pivotal evolution in AC/DC’s sound—grittier, more dynamic, and lyrically darker than its predecessors. It’s also the first album to feature bassist Cliff Williams, solidifying the band’s classic lineup. From the opening blast of “Rock ‘N’ Roll Damnation” to the ferocious closer “Kicked in the Teeth,” this LP is packed with Bon Scott-era brilliance. Highlights include the electrifying “Sin City,” the bluesy menace of “Down Payment Blues,” and the riff-heavy “Riff Raff.”

The cover features a now-iconic image of Angus Young, with colored wires hanging from his sleeves, perfectly capturing the album’s raw energy. The back sleeve showcases the band in their youthful defiance, adding to the record’s vintage appeal.

Pressed on vivid red vinyl and featuring the classic green-and-orange Atlantic labels, this edition stands out both visually and sonically. A standout piece for any AC/DC collection, and a killer spin from start to finish.
