This was the band's first album to feature [[Cliff Williams]] on bass guitar, and it was also the first AC/DC album not to have a title track (aside from the Australia-only ''[[High Voltage (1975 album)|High Voltage]]'' album) and the first worldwide not to be released with a different album cover. ''Powerage'' was re-released in 2003 as part of the ''AC/DC Remasters'' series.<ref>{{cite web |title=The AC/DC Remasters |url=https://www.discogs.com/label/584329-The-ACDC-Remasters |website=Discogs |access-date=18 August 2022 |archive-date=15 July 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220715131318/https://www.discogs.com/label/584329-The-ACDC-Remasters |url-status=live }}</ref>
