AC/DC : Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (Australian Version ..and More)


JUST RING

36,-24,-36,

I LEAD A LIFE OF CRIME..




 Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap


 is the

 third

 studio album 

by

 Australian

 Hard Rock

 band 

AC/DC

originally

 released only

 in Europe,

 Australia

 and

 New Zealand

 in 1976. 

The album was

 not released 

in the

 United States 

until 1981, 

more than one year

 after lead singer

 Bon Scott's 

death. 

This was also

 AC/DC's 

first album 

in its entirety 

to be recorded 

with the

 same lineup,

 rather than

 including at

 least one track 

recorded with a 

different bassist

 or drummer.

Background

AC/DC

 began recording 

Dirty Deeds 

Done Dirt Cheap 

in December 1975

 at Albert Studios 

with 

Harry Vanda

 and 

George Young

 elder brother

 of guitarists 

Malcolm and Angus

producing. 

In April 1976,

 the band went on

 their first tour

 of the UK,

 where

 "It's a Long Way to the Top

 (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)" 

was released 

as a single. 

According to the book

 AC/DC: 

Maximum Rock & Roll

Vanda and Young

 travelled to the UK 

to record 

several songs

 with the band at 

Vineland Studios

 for a scheduled EP, 

which was 

eventually scrapped.

 "Carry Me Home" 

later appeared in 1977

 as a B-side to

 "Dog Eat Dog", 

while

 "Dirty Eyes" 

remained unreleased 

and was later 

reworked into 

"Whole Lotta Rosie"

 for 1977's

 Let There Be Rock

Only

 "Love at First Feel" 

was used for 

Dirty Deeds

but not for the

 Australian release.

 A song titled 

"I'm a Rebel" 

was recorded at 

Maschener Studios

 as well, 

with music

 and lyrics 

written by

 another elder

 Young brother, 

Alex Young. 

This song was

 never released

 by

 AC/DC, 

and remains in 

Albert Productions' vaults.

 German band

 Accept 

later released it

 as a single, 

and named their 

second album

 after it. 

High Voltage 

was released in

 the United States

 in 1976. 

However, 

hampered by 

visa problems 

and a lack of

 interest from 

Atlantic Records

 in the US, 

the band 

returned to

 Australia

 to finish their 

third album.
