If You Want Blood You've Got It

"If You Want Blood You've Got It" is a live album by the Australian rock band AC/DC, released on October 13, 1978. This album captures the raw energy and intensity of AC/DC's live performances, showcasing songs recorded during their 1978 world tour.

It was the first live album by AC/DC and includes tracks from their earlier albums, up to "Powerage," which had been released earlier in the same year. The recordings were made primarily at their concert at the Apollo Theatre in Glasgow, Scotland, on April 30, 1978. The album is named after the song "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)" from their later album "Highway to Hell."

The album cover features a dramatic image of guitarist Angus Young lying on the stage floor with a broken guitar impaled through him, illustrating the high-energy and somewhat reckless image the band was known for.

Critically, the album has been praised for its energetic and electrifying performances, giving listeners a taste of the band's powerful stage presence. It's an essential part of AC/DC's discography and is often considered one of the greatest live rock albums. The album played a significant role in cementing AC/DC's reputation as one of the leading hard rock bands of the late 1970s.

With its raw sound and relentless energy, "If You Want Blood You've Got It" remains a fan favorite and a quintessential representation of AC/DC's live prowess during the Bon Scott era.
