Fred,
You know it.
'TNT' almost made it, maybe it should have, on any given day the list could be different, but 'TNT', like 'High Voltage', 'Problem Child', 'Bad Boy Boogie', which are all great songs and classics; they are sort of standard AC/DC formula stuff. Much like Hip Hop, a lot of AC/DC is bluster type "I'm so bad..." braggadoccio. I look deeper, past the obvious, for the truly great songs.
As for 'Sick As a Dog', again, it's a classic, but if falls just short of the mark.
'Get Yer Ya Yas Out' should have made the list, a ghastly oversight. I'd say it should rank either before or after 'Live and Dangerous'. A tie? At any rate that knocks Petty off the list, but I'm okay with that. There are three or four cuts on '....Plantaion' that don't slay me, but 80% of it is just superb.
Don Rickles? Hmmm. Nope. Not funny enough. Good talk show guest, but he doesn't rank in my book.
Andy,
Shit.... you got me with that one too. A total lapse.
I guess 'Ride On' would knock off 'Little Lover'.
For the record, 'Hell's Bells' almost made the list as well.

I struggled with 'It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock n Roll), but in the end It didn't make the list.
'Live After Death' might make my Ten Worst Live Records list. Sounds awful, and Bruce never could do Dianno well. The record is way too long, the grooves on the vinyl are so tight that the result is a barrage of blurry mid range.

In 1995 or so I was dragged to a gentlemen's club in Vegas by some friends, there for a weekend before I got married. Walked into the club and Ride On is playing, loud, really loud, pole dances and all. I'm thinking, "Vegas is pretty cool."
