Description

AC/DC, Electric Shock is a rare, 2LP, containing live recordings from 3 different concerts, spanning from 1976 through 1979, featuring the late Bon Scott.  The track listings and the concerts they originally belonged to are as follows:
Side A Live Wire (January 1976, London) It's a Long Way to the Top (January 1976, London) Soul Stripper (January 1976, London) High Voltage (January 1976, London)
Side B Baby Please Don't Go (January 1976, London) Let There Be Rock (March 1977, London) Problem Child ( March 1977, London) Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be (March 1977, London)
Side C Bad Boy Boogie (March 1977, London) I'm a Rocker (March 1977, London) Whole Lotta Rosie (October 1979, Maryland) Rocker (October 1979, Maryland)
Side D If You Want Blood (October 1979, Maryland) Let There Be Rock (October 1979, Maryland) The Jack (October 1979, Maryland) Highway to Hell (October 1979, Maryland) 

This album is among the first 10 items I've listed for sale/auction on eBay.  As I am new to the process, I haven't given it an official grade because I don't want to be wrong or misleading.  Instead, I have provided photos and will describe its sound and condition.

RECORDING:

The audio quality on sides 1-3 is generally very good, but with some surface noise.  The recording is clear and strong, with a few imperfections. The flaws include a quick skip in It's a Long Way to the Top and a light pop in Bad Boy Boogie. There are also 2 pops over a 7 second span in I'm a Rocker (the first one).

The quality of the audio on side 4 drops substantially.  The audio level drops for long stretches (most of side 4) to the point where you would have to turn the volume up on your stereo to hear it.  Once you've done that, it sounds good with only a few quick clicks in If You Want Blood or Let There Be Rock.  

VINYL

The vinyl is still bright, but contains some minor scuff marks and scratches, with a longer one on side C. 

LABELS:

The labels are blue, clean, and centered.  All 4 sides read "Hopscotch Music Present, The Aerobics, Live in Concert.  Hopscotch Productions, Duluth, Minn.  PL-09." 

JACKET:

The photos and text on the front and back covers are on paper glued to the cardboard and are in very good shape. Both sides are identical and contain the notation "WL-9 1980 WLS Records."  The artwork/photos are generally clear but have some fade and wear to them, as do the edges and corners.  The only other flaws would be a price sticker on the front and a small tear on the back that also has a single strip of scotch tape near the tear.  

I welcome questions and e-mails requesting additional information or photos of this item.

CUSTOMER SERVICE

As I indicated above, I am new to eBay.  I will be selling a rather large collection of record albums, autographs, baseball cards and other memorabilia.  I have done a considerable amount of research and preparation to ensure that I provide the highest level of customer service.  My goal is to receive 100% positive feedback.  If any issues arise during the process that I haven't anticipated or that were beyond my control, please contact me immediately and give me the opportunity to address the matter to your satisfaction, so I can make the situation right and earn your 5 stars.
