Feel the raw surge of early AC/DC with this UK pressing of Powerage, catalog number K 50483, released in 1978 on Atlantic Records. This edition delivers Bon Scott-era rock at its grittiest, loaded with swagger, electricity, and a sense of no-frills rebellion that defined the band's breakthrough years.

What makes this UK release especially notable is the inclusion of “Cold Hearted Man”, a track omitted from most international versions. This song not only adds depth to the album's lineup but is widely considered a unique mix exclusive to European pressings, making this copy a coveted variation among collectors. It's not a radically different remix in the studio sense (like an extended or club version), but its mixing and mastering differ slightly from later versions, adding to its rarity and mystique.

Bon Scott's gritty vocals, Angus Young’s ripping guitar work, and the tight, pounding rhythm section lay the groundwork for what would become one of rock's most enduring sounds. The album includes power tracks like Riff Raff, Sin City, and Down Payment Blues, all wrapped in a dark, electrified cover featuring a disheveled Angus with cables pouring from his sleeves, a visual metaphor for the record’s voltage.
