Since exploding out of Sydney, Australia in 1973, AC/DC have been at the very forefront of heavy metal. Built around the central core of Glaswegian-born brothers Malcolm and Angus Young, whose brutal dual guitar assaults almost immediately set the rock world aflame, the band's awesome live battery has since passed into legend. AC/DC's stock in trade, a simplistic and uncluttered blend of fundamental rock & roll riffs and deliciously amoral licentiousness, has gradually come to exemplify the metal ideal, and the blistering stage performances captured herein show exactly why. The precision holocaust of "Highway to Hell", blazing ferocity of "Let There Be Rock" and immense triumphalism of "For Those About To Rock" are visceral sonic power incarnate. As Angus slashes forth elemental chords and struts the stage in his trademark school uniform, Brian Johnson roars himself ragged and bellows the crowd into abject submission. Mayhem has never sounded more glorious. --Ian Fortnam
