Rare AC/DC songs
There are several flip sides of AC/DC singles that are now no longer available. There are both studio, and live cuts.
STUDIO:
Can I Sit Next To You Girl/Rockin' In The Parlour -
These were the A
and B sides of the lone single released with Dave Evans as singer.
Rockin' In The Parlour is available on the 'Albert Archives' Compilation
which was released in Australia. CD: 465395, LP: APLP 037
Fling Thing -
This was released as the b side to the Jailbreak single
off DDDDC in Australia. It is an instrumental arrangement of a Scottish
Highland Fling.
Carry Me Home -
A song from the DDDDC sessions, which was released on
the flip side of the Australian 'Dog Eat Dog' single.
Cold Hearted Man -
A song from the Powerage sessions, that found its way
onto the LP in Europe only. It was also released as a limited edition 12"
bonus single to the LP version of an Australian box set that contained the
first 6 AC/DC studio albums (T.N.T., High Voltage, DDDDC, Let There Be Rock,
Powerage, Highway To Hell). Note: The box set also contained an iron on patch
of the AC/DC logo in flames, the same design that was on the box set cover.
Snake Eye -
A song from the Blow Up Your Video sessions. Released on the
UK 'Heatseeker' cd single (A9136 CD).
Borrowed Time -
Another BUYV outtake. Available as the flip side on various

Down On The Borderline -
Yet another BUYV product. Available on the
Australian 'Moneytalks' cd single (Albert 656500 2).
