Later, when Bon sings an unusually long line, Angus plays a really disgusted-sounding guitar break instead of trying to copy it.

'''''High Voltage''''' is the debut studio album by Music/{{ACDC}}, released in 1975. Like it's successor from the same year - ''Music/TNT1975'' - the album was released only in Australia. An album of the same name was released internationally the following year, but it only features "She's Got Balls" and "Little Lover" off this album.

This album is notable as it features neither Mark Evans nor Phil Rudd - the band's first stable rhythm section (discounting Malcolm Young of course) . At the time, the band's bassist and drummer were Rob Bailey and Peter Clack respectively. However, neither Bailey nor Clack appeared on the album much, with the latter appearing on just ''one'' song ("She's Got Balls"). The rest of the drum parts were played by session musicians: either George Young (older brother of Malcolm and Angus; famous in his own right as a member of The Easybeats and as a songwriter and producer. Young produced this album with Harry Vanda, also of The Easybeats), Tony Currenti and John Proud. Aside from Bailey, the bass was played by Malcolm and George Young.

Hits and fan favourites include "Baby Please Don't Go", "She's Got Balls", "Little Lover", "Soul Stripper" and "Show Business".
