Favorite AC/DC album (aside from Back in Black or Highway to Hell)?

Acca Dacca is releasing their final album this December and I'm curious how most of you view their legacy.
Despite a lack of diversity in sound, I consider them to be the greatest strictly blues-rock, riff-driven band on the planet. They are internationally loved and are on the verge of becoming one of the few artists to ever release a platinum album in five separate decades.
I love nearly every one of their 15 studio albums released so far. But which are the best?
Aside from choosing either of their two most highly-acclaimed releases, I would say that it alternates between Powerage, Let There be Rock, and For Those About to Rock.
Then again, there are several albums I could easily choose instead.

Top 3 all-time favorite band. HIGH VOLTAGE is so stripped down and raw, and Bon never sounded nastier, but LET THERE BE ROCK is really unbelievable. Right up there with HIGHWAY TO HELL.

But seriously. I used to listen to them a lot in high school. Now aside from a select few songs in small doses at the right time, I find them annoying.

I can't count the number of 8 tracks and cassettes of Powerage I wore out in highschool.
In fact I just listened to it in it's entirety just last week. Even after all these years, the words are still etched in my brain.

High Voltage is a quality album when you consider how early in their career it was released. The musicianship is pretty tight and it's just catchy as hell.
Let There Be Rock is some of the grittiest rock I've ever heard. The overdrive of the Young Brothers' guitars and Bon's waling vocals on that album are particularly enjoyable.

My SO got me a newly printed vinyl record of the album for my birthday, but I just can't bring myself to play it due to the fear of ruining it.
That album has so much bite to it with Cliff Williams on bass. "Sin City", "Gimme a Bullet", "Riff Raff", and "Rock 'n' Roll Damnation" are some of their absolute best tracks.
It's an album that makes you want to kick arse and take names.

For those about to Rock is every bit as good as Back in Black.

I definitely preferred Bon Scott's AC/DC to Johnson's. Scott wasn't just the lead singer but also the soul of the group IMO. He was a fantastic frontman. I lost most interest in the group after Back In Black, which was their last good offering.
Night Prowler
Walk All Over You
Also prefer Scott's version of Back in Black
