AC/DC - Live at Donington (1992)

Hello all. I must say I am so glad I bought this - after some of the negative attitudes of others who do not really know what they are talking about ... the issue of dubbing:

The only problem with the DVD is that there is a risk, is a bit 'more than the product - too many cameras and angles, but this can be justified by the size of the stage and try to cover the entire operation (in particular, keep track of Angus!)

The other thing to consider is that these guys have been going for 30 years and have developed a unique sound and tight it is often difficult for people to believe that it is actually a LIVE! peformance (There would be major legal implications for Sony / Epic, if used recording studio - I think, just do not do it, especially with the laws of this kind of things are tight)

In addition, there are problems with the rebound of the speakers that filled the park which means you occasionally have problems with camera angles and the corresponding sound in place.

There have been comparisons with Led Zeppelin DVD, but it is not very different settings, the music is completely different, etc etc, but both show that the bonds of the former just want something that little bit extra that all current dirty, repetitive, weak things today.

Angus is known as one of the best guitarists of our time (with Page and Hendrix), due to the technique, the perfect score at all times, the riffs of genius who can play for hours without missing a beat - another reason t n ' is superimposed.

This is a great DVD and worth the money (ignore the nay-sayers) - He even had my grandmother (she's 92) out of his wheelchair and through all the pain of arthritis - it amounted to Goose and head hit with Angus! Of course, I had to call the ambulance behind, but she had a smile on her face when she was litter. Young and old enjoy all!

AC/DC- Highway To Hell: Classic Album Under Review (2007)

This film puts the album Highway to Hell in the spotlight and with the help of those who worked on the case, friends of Bon Scott, AC / DC biographers and others who were there at the time, discover how the album was made , how it was received and how it continues to inspire musicians and fans to this day. With rare and classic images of the group, interviews with Bon Scott and Angus Young, exclusive contributions from friends, colleagues, journalists and biographers, every track on the album reviewed and evaluated by a panel of experts estimated that, and many others. Although it was not until the release of the album Back In Black AC / DC became superstars in the world, the time most fondly remembered by fans of this extraordinary group is when Bon Scott bar - between 1974 and 1980. And if there is a disc from the moment that best illustrates the powerful "DC were all these years, should be Highway To Hell.

Bonus material: I doubt that the other reviewer here has actually seen this DVD, because it claims it does not contain music of AC / DC or a movie is all wrong, it contains actaully charges, and interviews with Bon, Angus, as I have never seen before, is first class. The film includes clips of each song on the album, a lot of interviews with band members and contributions from Tony Platt [who co-produced the album with Mutt Lange] Good movie Clinton Walker, longtime friend Bon and former band member, Vincent Lovegrove and, yes, Malcolm Dome is also there, but to speak intelligently and with authority, and it seems that not only met the band several times, but remain in touch and learn more about them than anyone here [he is one of rock's most respected lists around day ']. There are many others too, and it is one of the best documentaries I have seen in the group - if you're a true fan, I would recommend a purchase.
